Unless PLAN has a blue water navy that is capable of denying US

from a super power.
Err, to what rights do u think China has even if it has a navy that
is able to match the USA to systematically deny USA access to the
Pacific ocean? 
In the event of a nuclear first strike, the United
States's nuclear arsenal is
capable of wiping out the entire Chinese leadership by ICBMs
launched from the West Coast.
If you ever wondered, there will be no nuclear first strike by
the usa unless it is being striked first, thats in the constitution
of the USA i believe..correct me if i am wrong.

Do you actually believe thats all China has? How many nuclear
warheads do you think Isreal actually possess? amid its denial of
existence?
United States has lost both the Korean and Vietnam
war.
And? they are still at 'war' in Iraq, and Afganisten and also
techinically at 'war' with the North Koreans.
I seriously doubt the United States will ever wage a all out
conventional war with China if required. Most likely it will a
nuclear scenario.
They will never be a nuclear war outbreak between China &
USA, both would not want it or rather, the world will not allow
it.. , a war between China & USA amounts to a World War 3 if u
factor in both their allies.
