.....................so he just made a deal to extend the time on US visas to the Chinese. I didn't realize that China wasn't doing so well. Well nice to see that Obama will be creating jobs in the US - for the Chinese. And think of all those anchor babies?? Whoopie!!!!

US wants China 'to do well', Obama says in announcing visa deal

Too bad he didn't work on making the US a prosperous, peaceful and stable country.

Did he forget to mention their great record on human rights?? Well, once they get here they can demand amnesty.

Good relations with China sounds great to me. I really don't see how improving a relationship with a strong country would harm the U.S.

In this case, I think Obama is correct. We need to improve our relationship with China...it's in the long term interests of both of us imo.

Yup. How about opening up to Cuba as well? More markets for US goods means a better economy here.

It's beyond absurd that we haven't tried to repair our relationship with Cuba....the sooner the better as far as I'm concerned.

He is visiting China. What do you expect him to say to Chinese audience? "I hope China fails"?
