Joe Biden has reversed JFK's pledge, as he brags about his political alliance with Pope Francis.
In the closing days before the election, Biden has been courting the Catholic vote by aligning himself with the pope's political musings, quoting from his encyclicals, and playing up their friendship.
Where Kennedy said that the pope did "Not speak" for him on political matters, Biden loudly invokes Francis in his politics.
Biden takes his politics from the pope and his religion from the political zeitgeist.
Whatever form this reset takes, if it happens, Biden and Bergoglio can be counted on to join forces to promote it.
What explains the deafening silence from the bishops about Biden is not just that they share his politics.
Like Obama, Biden can even expect to receive honorary doctorates from Catholic colleges while doing so.
