    John McCain visits with the Dalai Lama, China not happy about it.
    McCain says, "“I urge the Chinese leaders to engage in talks and make progress with his Holiness's representatives in addressing the just grievances of the Tibetan people," he told reporters."

    China has a lot of issues which include Tibet, Manchuria, Kasmir, Taiwain, and South China Sea (oil rights).

    If you are ready to stay for a 100 years you can get out sooner and in a more favorable way.

    Typical poor job of people staying on-topic. I think it's great McCain met with the Dalai Llama. I mean you don't really expect him to not do it because the Chinese won't like it?
