"I deny that. It was not that way," Monsignor Marcelo Sanchez Sorondo told Reuters in a telephone interview while he was traveling in New York. Sorondo, a close aide to Pope Francis, is the head of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, which is hosting the event. He said it was his idea to invite Sanders."

#PapalGate defeated in record time. Another smear flung back at the Clinton Camp.

They are trying so very hard to destroy Bernie and his well earned reputation.

They post vile lies and they are more then happy to do so.

I just don't see Francis being too keen on getting into the middle of a U.S. presidential primary.

... and she really has no need to.

Bernie said he had a meeting scheduled with the Pope, and that has been proven to categorically false.
