I'm not sure it's a distraction. Way back when the campaign was in full throttle Obama visited Atlanta and a gentleman who was very excited to have been in his presence asked my husband if he had heard about Obama's plan to change the currency once he became President. When all the talk of global currency started getting attention, I couldn't help but recall this conversation. Can't document it as it was said to us by someone we happened to meet at our car dealership Service Center! Any way to see if he really said this...wouldn't that be pertinent????
