You have forgotten how Jack Kennedy had to give a speech, in 1960, to reassure USians that his Catholic faith was not going to dictate how he ran the country?
And I remember, first hand, how many refused to believe him.
My own grandmother (bless her name, but not her racism) warned me that Jack Kennedy would be taking his marching orders from the pope. She was serious.
