Remember that a Pope does not have to be a Cardinal. He could be a Bishop, priest, or layman.

I remember reading something about them having to be a Bishop, but that they could simultaneously be ordained Bishop and Pope. I am not sure if that is the way it works.

For what it is worth, I had a dream last week that Jean-Baptiste Gurion became Pope. He is the Benedictine Bishop of Jerusalem.
