Francis Rooney: Ambassador to the Vatican April 25, 2014
In 1984, the U.S. government began sending an ambassador to a different kind of place– the Vatican. It's known in diplomatic lingo as the Holy See, and it's considered a sovereign entity, with its own bank, its own bureaucracy and its own postal code. Ambassador Francis Rooney, the U.S. representative to the Vatican under George W. Bush, joins us to talk about why our country needs a strategic link with the Catholic Church.
