I just voted! This would be so incredibly special. It brings tears to my eyes just picturing it….Question that came to mind though…. How would China feel about this? Does anyone worry that China may not want any focus to be on adoption/orphans and thus would not want this? Just a thought! Please don’t bash me!

I have voted but ziggy is right, if Jenny Bwens wins, will they let her run? If she runs, the whole world will know that China can´t take care of their poorest kids and that people from other countries must help them. That´s not good PR for those in charge in China, they are terrified to “loose their faces” now when the Olympic games are coming closer. Hopefully they can see her as a kind and warmhearted person that makes life better for thousands of Chinese children.
