Hi Megan.

Unbelievable.

The first from the America is in the millennium.

With enormous -- to Italy as hundreds of thousands of people have immigrated from.

From Italy to Argentina it if there's anyone on earth.

Who could bring together.

Italy and and Latin America it it's this man -- this man of the people in from so many in -- short time here in Rome but -- years of covering this.

We've heard it.

The process could more include us Father Jonathan Morris if if if anyone could do that and heads has just done it.

It's this man.

Well on notice that he walked out and and was presented to the people without any notes whatsoever.

And just talked for a very good long time and he looked at people he didn't.

He didn't show off.

Began to thank them hurt where -- while.

And the fact that we have -- -- that's from argent.

You know from Latin America.

And get somebody who speaks Italian very well and just hope that very very good Italian with -- -- Argentines have a pretty strong -- in Spanish.

But he was known show.

He won the con men and made some serious reform because he was an outsider and because that's he had done so in Argentina and it -- it was.

Rumors were flying in -- pretty much its solid that he can system runner up 88 years ago after rap -- after Ratzinger.

Pope Benedict the sixteenth and he went back to Argentinian argent Argentina was in the elected.

How much -- heat and he had learned from his own people from from -- wasn't just a guy who had a lot of influence in the Vatican.

-- his brother bishops in Argentina selected him to be their leader in 2005 up to 2011.

And now he's gonna vote -- he's going to go to the world he's gonna show I believe under the humility that John Moody explained very well as Francis this.

He says he's done this throughout his life he's he's -- to the faithful and said the church needs you he's now gone.

He's now gone to -- into the world and said I need your help please pray for me and for the first time and our lifetimes -- any lifetime about which we have any knowledge.

He takes the -- emeritus for all that he had done the church.

And he -- so quietly and -- with -- shoulders back and stood still and thank the people I can't imagine a more.

More welcome gesture and -- and my guess is that Catholics throughout this city in this around this continent and around the world.

-- rejoicing that they have a man who.

Who is clearly.

Asking for them to be a part of the process.

He actually asked that people to pray over him -- bent down put his hands down.

Not just giving the blessing to them but please pray for me.

That deaths as a -- It says a lot and it's telling -- curious well this is the way you reform it's the change of the heart -- to humility it's not just management.

-- that even the ubiquitous sirens.

Stop whaling -- as -- About it I could tell you felt the moment there and I think certainly everyone.

It was a beautiful thing to behold as you watch the emotions right over the crowd and you could feel -- even here in the studio.

And now the reports are coming in -- the reaction from Argentina.

And how close their burst into tears upon the news that there cardinal.

Had been named I mean you can imagine the pride and and the overwhelming feeling of love they have for this man -- now do you.
