I would encourage readers to travel to China and Taiwan and see for themselves -- If you travel within china by air, you will be suprised by numbers of Aamerican and European businessmen on those flights.
In Taiwan, you may be suprised by the number of Taiwanese who now own property in China, primarily Shanghai.
Taiwan a hurdle in US-Sino relations? No, it's the ambitions of certain politicians in Taiwan that are a hurdle - The most recent election in taiwan is perhaps a reflection of the fact that conflict need not characterize the entirety of the relationship - there is just too much at stake, for China, for US and for the Taiwanese, who are ultimately Chinese and who are connected by heritage, kinship and now economic interest.
