The Key to Global Harmony

Our President is spending three days of meetings in China. He attends as a debtor. China is the USA's biggest foreign lender. We owe them billions. The president's approach is to set up a family relationship through talks. The poor relation, we want to be equally respected and considered the major power on critical global issues, nuclear arms agreements, global economy, global warming, joint clean energy projects plus pressing the Chinese government to expand human rights, political and religious freedoms to its 1.3 billion people.

China, in turn, has set aside the tradition of the population wearing pajamas in public as not in keeping with their new pitch as a developing nation hosting the world's fair next year in Shanghai. The Expo theme will be Better City, Better Life, emphasizing China - the world's third largest economy. It would help them to sell us 1.3 billion pairs of China made pajamas, binding the two nations together trade wise.
