:::Unfortunately enough, it's almost impossible for Arinze to be elected pope. Actually, he cannot even be a candidate as he's older than 80 and cardinals above that age do not partecipate to the ''conclave'' in the Sistine chapel. While technically every baptized Catholic man can become pope, the possibilities for this are totally nil. If I recall correctly, it hasn't been since the late Middle Ages that cardinals have chosen someone outside of the ''conclave'' as pope. There are also other reasons, one being that he's still too old and they want a young - well, young for the Church's meter - pope, below 65.
