Hate to be so harsh with another old-timer, but thisQuote from dozu888:
who is there to replace the US of A?
China? no way
Europe? they will prolly
"China? No way"
is about the depth of analysis I would expect from someone who uses the word 'prolly' in a sentence.
"China? You're goddamn straight" is more like it. Why the hell not China as the next economic/military superpower? They have everything going for them, including (and maybe most importantly) a political system which will allow those in power to make decisions that are best for the country even if they aren't the best for the citizens (and if anyone is tempted to spout some crapola like 'The citizens are the country', please... wake up). You think that American pols don't drool over the kind of control the Chinese state has?
