On a trip to America, Pope Francis lands in New York City and gets picked up by a white stretch limousine. "You know," the Pontiff says, "I hardly ever get to drive anymore. Any chance I could take the wheel?"
The driver hems and haws for a minute but he's supposed to see to the Pope's every want and need. "Yeah, ok," the driver says. "I can't really say no to the Pope."
The Pope pulls away from the curb and buries the gas pedal right to the floor mat. He's darting in and out of city traffic and drifting the limo around corners.
A motorcycle cop sees the limo coming and pulls it over. The driver's window slides silently into the door and the cop is standing face to face with the Pope. The officer walks to his bike and and calls the Chief.
The cop says "I pulled over this guy for driving way over the speed limit, but it's somebody REALLY important."
"Important like the mayor?" the Chief asks.
"Nope," the cop says. "More important than that."
"Important like the governor?" says the Chief.
"Way more important than that," says the cop.
"Like the president?" the Chief asks.
"Much more important."
"Well, who's more important than the president?" asks the Chief.
"I don't know," says the cop, "but the Pope is driving him."
