From Reuters:
China’s top state newspaper said on Monday Barack Obama is unlikely to bring the dramatic changes that he has promised if he wins the U.S. presidency and that his rise confirms, rather than challenges, racial divisions.
The Chinese government has avoided comment on the U.S. presidential contest, but the commentary in the overseas edition of the People’s Daily shed a little light on how the ruling Communist Party views the prospect of Democratic Party hopeful Obama winning the November election.
