I can see the Democrats getting Puerto Rico and the Republicans getting Taiwan. Who says the American Imperium is dead?

What a brilliant idea. And it would have the added benefit of driving the Chinese completely insane.

An intriguing idea, to be sure, but I doubt it would ever come to fruition.

Taiwan? No way, that would start a world war for no reason.

Well, I suppose we can always hope, hmm? =)

As an aside, it'd be funny to see how mad the Chinese would get.

A Chinese military challenge against the U.S.? I don't think so.

When Portugal went socialist in 1977, that was the big joke in the Azores. They wanted to become part of the United States.

If it came about, Hong Kong would be the 52nd.

Interesting idea. My only question is how long will the war with China last? And how bloody will it be? Because dearest advocates of the latest version of the Imperium Americana, China WILL GO TO WAR to prevent this.

No thanks needed, but I appreciate it. I am a big fan of the TAF.

The Chinese might be driven mad. But, what can they do? Bomb America? That's suicidal, isn't that?
