In his letter, Senator Black also notes Day's "favorable writings regarding Lenin, Castro, Mao, and Ho Chi Minh. As you well know, each of the above dictators ordered the execution of Catholic priests among the millions of other Christians murdered by these regimes. Kincaid also cites author Carol Byrne's documented research confirming that Day supported the policies of hostile foreign powers operating ... against her own country, the USA.... Nor could she in principle bring herself to condemn the social and economic ideals of Marxism. Still, Cardinal Dolan remains devoted to Day and, in the words of the "New York Times," has "embraced" her cause with striking zeal."

There is zero chance that Dolan will be Pope. From Benedict to Dolan.. no.

I remember seeing somewhere a bookie had the odds of Dolan becoming Pope as twice as much as an American being selected as Pope.
Of course, Cardinal Martini had the odds last time too, and he walked out the same as he entered.

That would be more like the Pope's impossible successor.

I can’t imagine the Vatican looking to the US for the next Pope. This country has wayyy too many morality issues.

Dorothy Day was *not* a Marxist. She was a Distributist - an economic view championed by G K Chesterton and Hillaire Belloc - hardly Marxists.

Did she not quit being a communist once she became a Catholic?

It seems to me the author of this article is really stretching to make Dolan “possible successor” and slamming Day in order to... who knows? Make an emotional article that seems to have relevance the topic of Pope Benedict’s resignation?
Big Fail.
