Why be only selective about the facts you want to deal with instead of dealing with them all ?

Let me see if this is correct:
The Petrodollar is the reference "currency" used to price oil. Local national currencies are valued on the currency exchange relative to the US Dollar. So a consumer nation purchases oil in their own currency as valued relative to the Dollar.
If that's correct, then when the US manipulates the value of its currency relative to other sovereign currencies, doesn't that offer the holder of the reference currency, the US, a certain amount of control over pricing of the commodity, namely oil?
I know very little about economics. However, it appears that you have some knowledge in this area. That's why I'm asking the question.
Thanks,

The US is currently trying to devalue the dollar 0 intrest and printing more. Problem is world markets are demanding US dollars. Think countriespecially like Russia, Italy, Spain there people are hiding money in US currency.
What's happening to oil isn't US fault and it hurts the US economy.
This is a caused by Saudi ArabIa they are attempting to prevent the US lead in oil. Bottom line Saudis can undercut US costs because shale oil requires more manufacturing.

Proponents of the theory claimed that every U.S. president since George Washington can have their bloodline traced back to various European royals, with at least thirty-three presidents having been descended from Alfred the Great and Charlemagne.[1] This system was used to (apparently successfully) predict presidential elections from 1980-2004, when it failed to predict George W Bush's reelection
