I have been researching this today and I haven't found anything definitive on this topic. The order was formed in 1540. That is a long time to be shut out.
From everything I've read, Bergoglio was quite content to be teaching out in the boondocks.
This is a very good answer.
A Jar Head President.... Hard to believe!!!
That's just plain silly.
If you want some real hard core knowledge of the Jesuits, here is a long read but fascinating. I don’t know how much is true but where there is smoke there is fire. FYI

So the new Pope worships Lucifer (the devil)? I need a tin foil hat for this...
Wow, haven’t seen that on FR for a long time. That false Jesuit oath is actually so debunked and wacky FR banned it. Sometimes you see it as the oath of the Knights of Columbus, which is even more amusing. Same thing with He Who Is Not To Be Named On the Religion Forum. I think it’s funny myself, in a ‘point and snicker kind of way.’
It’s right up there with the super computer under the Vatican with all the Protestant names and locations.
Freegards
It is my understanding that there haven’t been many Jesuits who have been made Cardinals, so they just weren’t ‘in the running’.
I may be completely off-base here, but I would presume that it’s not typical for a priest from an order like the Jesuits to get appointed to a position like a bishop of a major diocese. I thought bishops usually came from the ranks of diocesan priests, not from an order of priests like the Franciscans, Jesuits, etc.
I understand that “Oath” has been debunked and refuted by the Jesuits. Author and purpose unknown?
Best I can tell, our new Pope never sought accolades and prestige but was called on by the church in circumstances that have now elevated him to the highest order or calling.
I pray for him and have high hopes.
Are you aware that I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you at a very affordable price?
Once a Marine, always a Marine.
Along the same train of thought, if you usurp the office through voter fraud, you will never really think you are the President, so you will do nothing but campaign for 4 or 8 years.
Timing is everything
because Jesuits have traditionally been left wing progressives that didn’t believe in God?
The present pope was elevated to Cardinal by JPII not Benedict.
For sure. They had a field day raping and molesting Alaska Native children in rural Alaska. The damage the jesuits did was incalculable and is just now surfacing publicly. Alaska Natives have a much higher than average suicide rate and the jesuits are part of the reason.
check the cemetery, oh sorry, I mean seminary rosters, they have infiltrated every religious sect of religion, even Islam.
Think not they come to change from without, NO, true destruction comes from within. Know Thy Word and Thy Word will set one free to be at peace as it all unfolds.
Ask anyone who’s had Jesuit professors.
They can be a little, “off putting.” Keep in mind, it’s an election and people want to like the guys they are voting for.
Why the first Jesuit pope is a big deal
“Jesuits are bound by oath not to seek higher office in the Roman Catholic Church, and now one of them has been elected to its highest office: Bishop of Rome, Vicar of Christ, Pontifex Maximus”
