Marty Feldstein wasn't a member of Ronald Reagan's "inner circle". Reagan's people were Californians, like Ed Meese and William French Smith.

Marty Feldstein is a CFR, Trilateral Commission member. Also Group of Thirty and Econometric Society. And a Bilderberger.

Not exactly the kind of people Ronnie liked to run with .... more like the kind of people that Poppy Bush and James Baker brought into the Administration, on the strength of credentials, not belief.

George W. Bush also appointed Feldstein to a couple of posts.

Dr. Feldstein's most useful political contribution has been the proposal to depoliticize Social Security by privatizing it, one of the most significant ideas of the last 30 years. But I think he floated that one on 43's watch, not Ronald Reagan's.

Reagan wanted NOTHING to do with CFR.....McCain's getting pretty desperate, imho....dredging up false "Reagan" people.
