But he is an Argentian citizen of Italian heritiage. Yes I realize that, and you are correct. My point was that the Lib media is making his ancestral lineage seem "so different" from his predecessors when its derived from the same continent that all other Popes before him came. They are throwing out terms 'Latino' and 'South American' code words for the Lib Media for "none white none Europeans", total BS since Latin America is like the USA with many racial types including many white people. As if being a Latino (a term originally meant for a tribe in Italy to begin with) or someone from South America excludes people from being white and of European ancestry. If he was a Latin American of African or Asian ancestry, the Libs would be blasting his African and Asian roots from the top of their lungs: "An Afro Latin American!!" "An Asian Latin American!!" Typical Lib BS. They got a white Pople from South America, a White Latino and they don't know what to do or say to distant him from his European origins cause deep down they wanted a none white Pope. Just watch soon they will start to tear down his character because of hs anti-gay stances and they'll turn him back into the 'evil whity with European roots'.
Argentina is a very cosmopolitan country as is its neighbor Uruguay and grew prosperous from the influx of European immigrants. The lib media is making snide comments about the new Pope’s Italian immigrant heritage - read, white European heritage, as if he’s a blood brother to all the Italian cardinals in Rome. So one can assume that Francis has no Indian or black blood, no indigenous bloodline that the news media would call a true third world heritage. Argentina in other words is not Bolivia with its large percentage of Indians. Francis doesn’t look like the media’s hero Hugo Chavez who had Indian ancestry.
