Significant views: Would like to see a black pope.
On the upside, just dig up JP II. I reckon he'll be as black as any Ghanaian by now and from a distance, he'll look look like a suntanned version of old Ratzy anyway.

I still prefer Dave Allen for the job.
We are unanimous then. But seems his long term cadaverousness makes him as unacceptable to the bashed bishops as JP2
So I offer a candidate that can offer strong South American heritage (and they have fousands of catholics there) and would bring a healthy love of marmalade to the role
Paddington Bear for pope
