Jim:
Do you want the
market to become a
safe place to invest
again?... A place
where the playing
field between the
longs - regular
investors like
yourself - and the
shorts - often hedge
funds willing to
destroy good
companies in order
to turn a profit...
Do you want that? Do
you want a level
playing field?...
Then I know what you
want... I know who
you want... You want
James J. Cramer to
be your next SEC
Chairman...
That's right. I'm
throwing my hat in
the ring. As of now,
I'm formally putting
myself forward for
the job of SEC
Chair, and I want it
and, frankly, Obama
will be smart to
give it to me.

(Cont'd from

Jim (cont'd):
This isn't just my
usual megalomania
talking. I don't
mean to brag, but
look... Let's take a
look at my resume...
I mean, I'm a lawyer
by training, a stock
jock, a former hedge
fund manager... a
guy who knows the
tricks, and has seen
others do them...
although, to be very
clear, I never did
anything illegal, or
anything close to
unethical, because
in the end, I am a
goody two-shoes...
But I've seen other
money managers do
things that we want
stopped, and I know
how to detect
them...
As FDR said when he
appointed Joe
Kennedy to run the
SEC, "It takes a fox
to guard the
henhouse."
The market needs
Obama to declare who
he wants to run the
SEC. He's got to
pick him soon. He
better start vetting
me... and my
competition, because
we need Chris Cox
out of there...
ASAP... on a rail!
We've got to undo
Cox's legacy
quickly... a legacy
of subverting
everything that was
put in place to make
the market safer for
individual
investors, and
empowering - this is
what he did -
empowering short
sellers to create
fear and
destruction...
The Bottom Line!:
Christopher Cox, in
my opinion, is an
ideological fool...
We need someone with
the instincts to go
after market
manipulation, and
restore the
safeguards that
protect you, and
dampen the
outrageous
volatility. This guy
has made NFL
gambling look more
honest than the
market. I wouldn't
trust him with the
Nevada Gaming
Commission.
Yes-sir-ree, I'm
ready for the job!
Let's make the
change... yesterday!
