Knowing that this was never realistic, the second best outcome for Washington - captured succinctly in a 2005 speech by the then U.S. Deputy Secretary of State and current World Bank president Robert Zoellick - would be for China to demonstrate it is a "responsible stakeholder." America would ensure that China benefits from the global system of international rules and laws developed since World War II and institutions like the World Trade Organization.
