considering the ratings in the usa have been less that ideal i was wondering how an "ultimate apprentice" would go down.
according to wiki the appretnice is in...
South Africa
United Kingdom
Belgium
Brazil
Colombia
Denmark
Finland
Germany
Greece
India
Indonesia
The Netherlands
Norway
Pan-Arab
China
Russia
Switzerland
Turkey

the idea would be to get the best apprentice from each country... (or maybe a select few countries that would be deemed far more interesting to the viewers)... and go through the show with much harder tasks. the winner could get say a couple of million dollars to set up their own business at the end of it... most likely tied to trump as he would prob provide the money...

anyway i was thinking it could be really interesting especially if you pit the american apprentice against a chinese, indian, english and russian contender... china and india being the fastest growing economies in the world and russia being the old enemy... britian being the plucky kid fighting above his weight and of course the god ole us of a...

it could certianly play well with the latino audience, which is becoming ever more important in the usa, if you include apprenticies from the latin countries... the possibility of over a billion viewers in china and india...

just throwing it out.... seeing what people think

How would they all be able to speak in the same language.

one of the presquesites would be that all contenders would have to speak english... and since english is the language of business i do not think itll be muhc of a problem

Problem is nations would turn off as their candidate got booted off - the US one would have to stay till the end......

The ultimate apprentice on the other hand might be an interesting choice. I would take Kendra's market sense from Us series 3 and add it to the command skills of the ex US special forces guy who won their series 2. (S)he would make the right decisions and people would obey......
