How do you really know what 300 million people think when the only

controlled at the highest level by a handful of barons? (search 'media
consolidation' for the facts)

The Buddhist of Tibet believe in a succession of reborn Dalai Lamas.
The current Dalai Lama is believed to be the 14th reincarnation. Does
the belief by the Tibetan people in a reincarnated Dalai Lama make the
