I'm somewhat overwhelmed by the microblogging that takes place in China, and the smartphones and all the people that want to take pictures of myself and my family.

Everybody simply wants to be reunited with their family members, their loved ones,

I think that there is a concern, a question mark, by people all around the world and governments all around the world, as to what China's intentions are.

If we expose the Chinese to our freedoms, it may create a greater hunger for democracy, reform and liberties in China.

We've come a long way since Nixon's first visit to China, or Carter's reestablishment of diplomatic relations.

We want to promote people-to-people exchanges so that China and the United States can really join together, not just to solve the problems of China or the United States, but some of the big problems facing the entire world. From climate change to famine to even terrorism.
