Please give me a break. Yiwu and i have has a wonderful dialogue over the last two days. She has even helped me with a new years gift for my daughter in law who happens to be chinese. Yiwu is smart as hell and I will challenge her when i think she is wrong. Anything less would be condenscending and patronizing on my part as well as disrespectful. My questions to her below were to gain info on where china may be heading. Our two party system leaves much to be desired or havent you noticed? Can a one party state in china produce some democracy? In a sense it has. Mike Yiwu, Michael (Cummings) was saying that the arrival of democracy in china would embrace all of china so in a sense taiwan(democratic principles) would take over china(communist party rule). That is what he meant. Do you not recognize Taiwan as a democracy and China as a one party state? Do you think political democracy is not essential in china and that freedom can exist in a one party state with the democracy that exists with the one party as enough. mike
