Did you see the map showing the states where most Catholics live? EAST COAST and WEST COAST have the largest concentration of Catholics. That is HUGE for NY, CT., PA., DE and MD. Then go to the West Coast and CA.'s Latino voters who are mostly Catholics...this visit is MONUMENTALLY IMPORTANT.

The opponents know that too. That's why they've been carrying on like sore losers and spoiled brats all day long. They're JEALOUS, but this Pope would NEVER invite someone like Clinton to the Vatican. He sees where her loyalties lie and they're not with THE PEOPLE, like Bernie's are.


This pope washes the feet of the poor and homeless. I could see Bernie doing that, but NEVER Clinton. Bernie and the Pope have BOTH been fighting for 'The Least of these' their entire lives! Clinton? Not so much. She was too busy giving speeches for $225,000 each.

I can't wait to see how the corrupt corporate owned MSM spins the crowds Bernie is certain to draw in Italy. He's beloved around the world! I bet the Italian media gives him more respect than he's EVER received from our corrupt corporate owned MSM. I hope they're shamed....though they're probably incapable of feeling shame.

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE
