now demand that Obama step down and be replaced?
Since they hold the majority of our debt and we're begging them to take more shouldn't we be transperent and shouldn't THEY have the right to remove the people running our "company"? Hey it works for our government with private industry so...
Just a thought...

I think China likes Obama.

Wagner... was a 19th century German composer. That was way before Obama.

No. They need American trade too badly.

Really? I don't know about that.
Buying out, kicking out, seizing, etc.

Maybe China would "suggest" Kim Jong II as the best replacement.

I'd also like to point out that even if something like that could happen, China would most likely pick the replacement. Somebody who would do things their own way. With the exception of Hong Kong (which is the closest to free-market capitalism you'll get) China is a state controlled market communist country. Yes, there is a market like capitalism, but the property for production is mostly government owned. Say China was to pick somebody who followed the way they run things over there. Then you guys would be begging for Obama back. China does far more interference than our government ever would.
