A world power is more like soaring through the sky in the sink or swim analogy.
I'm not sure that America will have the ability to remain a world power, yeah top 10 for sure but not quite the way it has been in the last 50 years. It just feels inevitable to me, like it's time in the spotlight has passed. That's just a feeling though, no facts or proof to back it up.
But yeah I do think that learning Chinese will help America hold it's position a lot longer.
