PRINCETON, N.J., Feb. 22 (UPI) -- A Gallup poll shows half of Americans think China is the world's top economic power, though economic reports show otherwise.
For the first time in the nearly two-decade-long history of the Gallup World Affairs survey, the majority of Americans picked another country -- not their own -- when asked what country they considered the top economic power. Only 37 percent of the random sample of 1,021 adults said that America was the global economic leader.
