Whereas Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie might be our Super World Travelers, there’s no doubt that President Obama is our Super Business Traveler. After wrapping up a summer of whirlwind around-the-world meetings and appearances with his family in tow, autumn is marked by his huge solo visit this week to China.
Over the weekend, Obama landed in Shanghai after a quick visit to Japan and Singapore. Already in China, he has hosted a town hall-style meeting with Chinese students to discuss freedom of information—with a small nod to Twitter, saying: "Well, first of all, let me say that I have never used Twitter…my thumbs are too clumsy to type in things on the phone." This came in response to China’s past ban on Twitter, although access to the website was re-opened at university campuses for this special event.
