during visit to American Enterprise InstituteBy Melinda Henneberger*
As the Dalai Lama entered the room at the American Enterprise Institute,
where he’d been invited to discuss the idea of “moral markets,” the crowd
stood and kept still, in reverential silence. Then, though, everyone he
passed began to laugh. Not at the idea that unencumbered enterprise might
be the path to peace, but because His Holiness is the Melissa McCarthy of
religious leaders: You look at him and can’t help it, before he even opens
his mouth, and no matter what he says when he does.
