What are the Odds?! Two of the most polarized world leaders visit the United States in the same week! And then John Boehner resigns?? Let's Talk about it!

On one hand, Xi Jinping, President of the People's Republic of China with several human rights allegations is visiting the White House.

On the other, Pope Francis, a moral and spiritual world leader, with unprecedented popularity, and liberal views on climate change, income inequality, and immigration, is also visiting the US this week.

That makes us curious. What is are the politics of this anomaly?

And then there is this...

No Pope has ever visited the United States during a Presidential elections until now. With the race for the White house starting to heat up, do you think that the Pope's visit & speech to Congress will influence the Election in any way? How might the Pope's visit influence the rhetoric of Democratic and Republican Candidates? Who might this favor? Has it already begun with John Boehner's resignation?
