Well.Let's say you are China's vice 8 president and you are vising the United States.Where do you want to go?Muscatine,Iowa.Chinese vice president,Xi Jingping insisted on a stop in the town yesterday.It's because he spent two weeks in Muscatine back in 1995 and he want to visit his old friends.Ted 3 Rollan has more on Vice President XI and what his leadership could mean for the relationship between US and China.
Iowa governor,Terry Bryan Stat was serving his first state governor when Xi came in 1995.The two met against last fall in Beijing and Bryan Stat says the next Chinese leader said he wanted to come back.
 
 
He was so pleased with the warm and friendly welcoming this evening,really considering Iowa is old friend.
Experts say for years Xi was known mostly for his famous wife,a Chinese singer while he lineage runs deep in the Communist Party.He representative a new generation of leaders.Former Ambassador Jon Huntsman,believe Xi could be good for American business.
He's got out of this way in recent years to bomb up the economics and trade,knowing for well that these are issues that are going to determine whether or not United States  and China are able to get through the years to come.
