In a way this Pope is the best of both worlds, literally He is of Italian heritage, his parents were Italians living in Argentina. So have an Italian/Spanish thingy going on here. Both Italians and Latin Americans will be happy. Seems very humble and is pleasant on the eye, fatherly, like you want a Pope to be. I’m fairly pleased here. Was hoping for the Canadian but I think a wise choic was made after reading about this Pope’s background. Viva Il Papa!
Wanted an American, but after reading about his humble life, I say CONGRATS and WELCOME your holiness.
