No article or anything to link to, just an anecdote to share.
There is a raving moonbat on another board I visit who happens to have a Japanese Exchange student living with her. He is totally against Obama, says he's afraid of his policies, and what effects it would have on the world. He thinks Obama will empower China, which then threatens Japan.
Makes sense to me.

It makes sense to me, too, given the Democrat, liberal, and primitive history of being supportive of the celestial socialist paradise of the workers and peasants over free and democratic societies.

Makes perfect sense. Right now, China is not that much of a threat to the US because, well..they know we'd f**k 'em up if it ever came down to it. But with an Obama presidency, I can see him slashing the military to where Clinton never dreamed of, plus his promise to unconditionally meet with leaders of rouge nations that ARE threats (I.E. Iran), China would see Obama as a friggin' carpet and walk all over him and would have no problem overtaking Taiwan, Korea, or for that matter, Japan if it came down to it.
Am I wrong in thinking that too?

Without the question of military confrontation even entering into it, both the Chinese and the Russians will be powers immediately "Testing" Obama if he is elected. The Russians, with the goal of re-establishing their dominance in Eastern Europe, the Chinese with the goal of expanding their influence in the Western Pacific (at the expense of Japanese and South Korean influence), almost certainly to include cranking up the torque on Taiwan.
