Bonjour! ¡Hola! Hejsan!
Dear Friends! I’m a young lad in my 30-s, optimistic and with sense of humor. If you are native FRENCH or SPANISH speakers and want to communicate live in voice chat, I’d be more than happy to make your acquaintance. In return I can offer you Russian & Swedish.

Re:The election of a new Pope.
I read of the process in a novel by Dan Brown, Angels and Demons. It was the same guy who wrote the DaVinci code, and this is his earlier book.
The college of Cardinals get together and they discuss the matter. Nobody is allowed to enter or leave the chamber until the process is complete. The Cardinal who presides over this election is the Dean of the College of Cardinals.
When they are ready to vote, each Cardinal writes his vote down on a special piece of paper.
The Dean carefully counts up all of the votes. If the votes are so split that there is no 2/3 majority, the papers are all burned in the fireplace, and black smoke coming out of the chimnney tells everyone watching from outside that a vote has been taken, but no candidate has been selected. When one candidate has a 2/3 of the votes, I forget what it is that changes, but the dean burns the papers and the smoke comes out white and everyone knows that a pope has been chosen.
Of course, this is all from a work of fiction. Dan Brown has a reputation for doing outstanding research, so I expect he's fairly close to the mark. But it wasn't recently that I read this. I look forward to hearing what somebody Catholic who knows what their talking about would have to say.

Re:The American dream!
Hi Arnaud, I'm from the Philippines and I'm learning French here. With regard to your question on American culture, well I'm quite familiar with that. We were colonized by the US for 50 years and it is very much evident in our culture. The American dream for me I guess is achieving what you want to achieve, like earn a lot, have a good job and a stable life. The US here in the Philippines is branded as the land of opportunities.
American symbols, hmmm. It would be the bald eagle and their stars and stripes flag. Uncle Sam is also a term coined to refer to the US in a person like manner. Famous writers include Hemmingway, etc. Presidents, the most popular for me would be JFK (john f kennedy), abraham lincoln and george washington. Painters, I guess would be Pollack.
