Would you, could you, with a Pope?

As a life-long Catholic and one who is inquisitive by nature, this business of "electing" Popes has always fascinated me. Another likely source of my fascination also stems from the fact that the Church last elected a Pope in 1976 -- when I was merely two years old. Earlier this year, I went to Houston with my church youth group and we saw the Vatican exhibit, where they had some really good information about Papal elections, including television footage from the last one. Given the current recall mess going on today in California, it is interesting to see how much the two processes differ. For an explanation on how a Pope is elected, check this out.
