He's bent on converting this corrupted, shit-stick of a government we're subjects of. I know, atheist that I am, I won't be found anyplace where $330K "collection plates" are being passed around - and neither will President Sanders.

a lot of families who are 2nd generation farm workers and immigrants are as tied to the Pope as they ever were -- I work with many, and they were even glued to the TV when he was just visiting Juarez recently. This is going to be heralded as an endorsement whether it was the intent or not
This is huge and the Hillary Campaign knows it or their minions would not be so spun out about it
