president of the new american foundation and democratic strategist and cnn political commentator cornell belcher. sebastien younger will be in our fifth chair shortly. andrew i read a lot about this on your web site today. >> for me it was a terribly moving day. i think for a lot of us catholics who feel like we've been in a bit of a wilderness for awhile not really comprehending why the hierarchy has been so unfeeling and really out of touch with the way real catholics want their faith to live. suddenly this pope took faith out of the head and put it back in the heart and soul. >> what does that mean? >> it means that he's not as interested in nailing down doctrines and insisting the way that the previous two popes have done on absolute orthodoxy in all doctrinal questions. no. his role is to lead the way in showing mercy to the world, in healing the world, in being in his body and his soul a vessel of jesus's love. and that is the message that our church has to bring. it's the fundamental message. and all the other things fall by the wayside. what he was saying is that the church has become li
