A Black Pope?

Could it be? An African on the shortlist for the papacy? Oh, if only this could happen! This would get me back in church again.

From MSNBC: The Pope's Mixed Legacy

"Francis Arinze also meets the criteria. He is a Nigerian with a fascinating personal story. His father was a chieftain, and he converted and was baptized at the age of 9. In 2002, he was transferred to head of the office in charge of liturgy and sacraments in Rome."
