Darien’s last post — The Timing Of The Investigation Of The U.S. Nuns
- April 21, 2012.


Darien compiled cardinalabili lists for the last two cardinal creating consistories and was remarkably successful. So, I consider Darien a proven expert in this field. Hence I am delighted that we already have a list from him — since this will definitely provided us with a great baseline for evaluating all future lists. Thanks Darien — Anura

And so the buzz for the next consistory begins; or at least it does here. Although I do recall Anura posting a link to an Italian source who started talking about the next consistory shortly after the one in February.

Overview: My list is based off the the anticipated aging out in one years time. There are 14 men who will turn 80 by the end of March 2013. So I am looking at a consistory between March-May 2013. (After March the next age-out occurs in June, then not again until September. It’s plausible that a May consistory would take into account the June age-out; bringing us to 15 openings). Obviously I cannot take into account any under 80′s who may die in the coming year. For now, all I am working with are anticipated vacancies due to age

Notes: Given how Curial heavy the last consistory was I believe the next consistory will clear out the backlog of residential prelates awaiting the red-hat. Also there is a major backlog among residential prelates from the non-western world. So this list is heavy in non-western residential prelates. Not as heavy at the top with the locks, I only have 5 each for the western and non-western world. But in the lower ranks, there are a great number of non-western prelates who may have a look at the next Consistory. There chances will improve so long as:

No major sitting Curialists, other than Bertone and Levada whose departures I have factored in already, retire or die between now and the next consistory.

Predecessors of Cardinalite Sees who are retired but not aged out don’t die. I.E. If Cardinal Mahony dies, Archbishop Gomez of LA would have much improved chances of becoming a Cardinal at the next Consistory.

Hitherto non-Cardinalite Sees do not gain a red-hat. I have a feeling one such See that might get a Cardinal in the not too distant future is Atlanta, GA and their Archbishop Wilton Gregory.

Only the Residential A and Curial A lists are in order of precedence; by that I mean the order in which I feel the most certain to least certain that prelate will be made a Cardinal. The other residential sections are grouped by continent but not in any order of precedence. Likewise the Curial B list is in no particular order.

  One Response to “Darien N. Clark — Cardinalabili ’2013′, The First Cut, The First List”

  1. The next several consistories will show whether Detroit and Baltimore will go by the way of St. Louis. The last several abps. of St. Louis have been bypassed. Those that became cardinals had to move to Philadelphia and Rome. The last one from Baltimore had to move to Rome to be a cardinal.
