U.S.-China Currency War?



A Colonel, corporate planner, and established author, Jeff Barnett is running for Congress in Virginia's 10th Congressional District.  Mr. Barnett retired from the military 11 years ago and worked for Toffler Associates until last November.  Beginning on September 3, Jeff Barnett launched an 80-mile walk across the 10th District, which began near the West Virginia border and ended in McLean.  Barnett used the walk to attract media attention and to make the point and pledge that if elected, he'll make the same walk every two years.  Will Jeff Barnett unseat Frank Wolf, who has been in Congress since 1981?

Guest:  Jeff Barnett, Democratic Candidate for Virginia's 10th District

Segment 2:  U.S.-China Currency War?

Burgeoning tensions between the United States and China threaten a trade and currency cold war.  The U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner says China's refusal to rapidly increase the value of its currency is hurting America's economic recovery.  China has rejected the claims, saying Washington is wrong to blame China for its economic woes.  The rhetoric is intensifying as U.S. midterm elections approach with the Congress considering tough new trade laws aimed directly at China.
