Hotline writes, “With Pope Benedict XVI‘s abdication, the next pope will be only the third to serve since the U.S. began formal diplomatic relations with the Holy See in 1984. Previous U.S. ambassadors to the Vatican from the political world include former Boston Mayor Ray Flynn (D), former Rep. Lindy Boggs (D-LA) and former RNC Chairman Jim Nicholson. The post is currently vacant.”
