re: SHORT THE DOLLAR

No not LSU. So let's look at the major currencies. First, the euro- short term due to Greece this will likely stay flat. In particular the long-term view that the dollar is the relative safe haven of the two will keep the pair in its current range.

Looking at the USD-JPY you have financial stability in Japan, assuming no other national disasters. There is not a significant amount of difference in rates to merit a risk and investment in the dollar.

We can go through more if you want. When rates are artificially low because the government is the primary buyer of notes. This easy monetary policy will continue for the foreseeable future causing an escalation of national debt. Eventually, and as you can see in my original post I didn't say the dollar would crash today, but it will when debt as a percent of GDP doesn't normalize. The debt growing is assumed but the only way to prevent this is to grow your way out. With the election I see no reason to believe growth will exist in a significant way to have this moderate.

And no I would like your rationale.
