Pope Francis I is the new head of the Church. This is a complete surprise to everyone since he's already fairly old. But he appears to be the right man for the job.

So, politically he fills in the need as a Bishop of Rome, and as a representative of Latin America, which represents the majority of Catholics around the world.
