He is the first pope to choose for himself the name of Saint Francis as far as I know.

He is also appropriately the first from Latin America, the largest single block of Catholics, and among the most oppressed.

Here's hoping he can use the formidable resources and clout of the Catholic church for the best possible humanitarian purposes.

He seems to be a man of the people and has usually rejected most luxuries provided by the church. There may be some hope in this Pope.
