If China had a Democratic primary, which way would the Middle Kingdom go?
  • Thank you for posting this...

    I think others are going to say its meaningless...and that is probably true.

    But this clip has reminded me about how much I used to hate Beijing. My boss wants me to move there to open an office. Sure, Beijing actually has more culture than Shanghai/Pearl Delta region...and definitely better food. And the appartments there have central heating and better insulation. However, I think I would go postal on people every day...listening to that accent while inhalling car exhaust fumes in the dry cold air. Yuk.

    And for the record, I hope it snows like crazy every year for now on in Southern China. Sure...its abnormal and my city (Suzhou) has pretty much shut down. But snow looks so pretty here (until it turns to slush...then dirty ice everywhere...then not so pretty).
