    I don't know that Ken Chenault moving from AMEX to Citi is a good idea for him. I mean, that business went from a $244 billion dollar brand to a $20 billion dollar brand in a matter of a couple years. Who in their right mind would board that sinking ship? I think Ken actually likes that they are going down because that means less competition for us. I'm sure every banking organization in the world would love to have a leader like Ken at the helm, but you don't leave the flagship financial institution for a lesser brand. That is just stupid.

    If this dude goes to Citi that is kind of trashy for him to do. Citi like you said has gone to 10% of their value and their slogan is "Citi never sleeps" but that's only because they are too busy spending the $300 billion from the feds they got and I wouldn't be able to sleep either if I had to spend that much it's a lot of work!

    Amex has a way better image and prestige than Citi. This Ken guy needs to stay right where he is.

    If he does go then Fuzz you need to go work your way up at Amex and then take Ken's place. You are both lawyers so why not?

    Stop talking crap about him and give him a chance!

    Wow you really hate that guy. A disgruntled ex-employee of Amex I take it?

    For those of you that don't like him it sounds like he may be on his way out. It was announced this month that the President of American Express Alfred Kelly is leaving. This article on CNN makes it sound as Chenault's tenure may be limited too. The crisis CEO - American Express's Kenneth Chenault - Oct. 15, 2009
