He's an independent chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, appointed by president and confirmed by Congress and serves for a term and the president couldn't even ask him to resign. Independent in theory, dependent in practice. And a president can ask him to resign, but can't force him.

I *swear* I can see collusion with the Obama regime emanating from the penumbra of the Fed’s so-called independence... but maybe it’s just the August heat. :-)

Incoming POTUS: “Ben, I’d like your resignation.”
Bernanke: “I decline, Mr. President.”
Incoming POTUS: “Your new salary will be $1 per year and your new responsibilities will be limited to keeping the toilets clean in the Treasury office building. Dismissed.”
