I've followed Cardinal Arinze ever since I heard about him making a speech at Georgetown Univerisity--the liberal parents and faculty got up in arms about his speech that was pro-life, and pro-family.
I think he would make a wonderful Pope. And that only increases the more I learn about the man.

Consider the prophecy of St. Malachy regarding the next pope. He refers to him as "Gloria Olivae" Translated: The Glory of the Olive. The olive branch is the universal symbol of peace. Arinze has spent the last 20 years working to foster understanding among Muslims, Sikhs, Buddhists, etc. He is multi lingual and traditionalist. IMHO, we may well see white smoke for a black pope.
