Definitely America for the first half of the century. China can compete with the US in 20-30 years but their population is aging fast and it is not clear if they can sustain their current growth for too long. India has a long way to go before it is a superpower of the scale of the US, but I see them as having the potential. As long as they can educate their masses and bring the fertility rate down to 2.0, they very well could be the superpower the of the late 21st century. But honestly I am only certain that America will be the superpower for the next 50 years.
