In China, the Dalai Lama is viewed as the Bin Laden, so if Dayton travels to china, he will not meet many china government top VIP's.

jiatong, If the Chinese consider the Dalai Lama equivalent to bin Laden, then the world is in more trouble than I thought.

Funny how the governor has time for all these dignitaries but no time to return my email from over a month ago regarding spending public money on a football stadium!

"In China, the Dalai Lama is viewed as the Bin Laden, so if Dayton travels to china, he will not meet many china government top VIP's." -------- You are so ill-informed. And by the way, Mark Dayton has already visited China, possibly more than once. Seen their factories, seen their industry.
