[quote=Anonymous]Also did not think an American had a chance, unless administrative skills, especially for finances, rose very high in the cardinals' list of concerns. Am thinking this must have happend; the finances of the Vatican are a mess. American cardinals are seen as scoring the highest in management and financial capabilities. I have not heard specifically about Pope Leo's skills in this regard, but he was twice elected the prior general of the Augustinian order globally; this would not have happened in the absence of strong administrative skills. This expertise may have weighed heavily in the cardinals' choice. But certainly it helped that he is seen as a moderate and is also a citizen of Peru.[/quote]
