Recent meetings between China and the United States are coming to an end following a state dinner President Obama afforded President Hu Jintao, usually afforded only to close allies. President Hu never forgave President Bush after denying the Chinese leader a full state dinner five years ago.The real question, which will be known in time, is what was the real outcome of this meeting? President Hu was given the opportunity to meet a free press, which is denied to his own people, and was faced with answering questions regarding his nations dismal human rights record.
An unavoidable issue at stake for most Americans is the condition of the U.S. economy. This is the one area that Americans care most about, all other issues are secondary to the U.S. economy and jobs. China manufactures most of the products the U.S. uses on a daily basis, further reminding the public of lost jobs and the stagnate job growth.
If the president wants to be successful, and at the same time improve U.S. standing with China, he needs to jump start the comatose U.S. economy. China continues to finance the staggering U.S. debt- if left unchecked, will it hinder U.S. economic output for the Future?
The president needs to focus on the U.S. economy first and foremost.
