No, even if you have been in possession of that knowledge, you would not have become the Dalai Lama, because you do not fit with their tradtion of finding one, and you do not have the education to be seen as a major Tibetan buddhist teacher of the Gelugpa-lineage and the Rime-movement. the one has nothing to do with the other. Your logic is circular here. the Dalai Lama is more than just a political leader, in tibetan understanding. they have a whole staff of political secretaries, and they also do not become Dalai Lamas.
