No. There are no Cardinals, but there is a potential.

You're thinking that the "Glory of the Olives" will be a Benedictine? Another way to interpret the "Glory of the Olives" is that the man will be a peacemaker (think olive Branch). Or that he will be a converted Jew (the olive bush which was pruned, and grafted with wildolives, but will be restoed, from Romans).

One man, still merely a Bishop, Jean Baptiste Gourion, 70, Auxiliary Bishop of Gerusalemme, and titular bishop of Lydda.

My rapid perusal of the Cardinal Electors suggests that none are Benedictines but I could be wrong.

Have a browse through the list and enjoy trying to pick the next Pope.
