While the visit by Chinese President Hu Jintao to Washington last month received considerable media coverage, there was virtually none for the remainder of his extended overseas tour. Yet it was the rest of Hu’s trip—to Saudi Arabia and three key African countries—that highlighted one of the chief reasons for his chilly reception at the White House—the growing rivalry between China and the US over oil, natural gas and other scarce resources....

Oh, the president appoints the head of the Fed, as it's called, and some of its officers, but then the Fed goes ahead and makes its own decisions about economic policy....
