...short, John Paul would seem to have trouble on his hands with the U.S. church, the richest and fourth largest* national branch of Roman Catholicism. Many American Catholics resent what they see as the Vatican's continuing view of the U.S. as a mission church. Because of the Pope's Polish background, says Milwaukee's liberal Archbishop Rembert Weakland, he "probably doesn't quite understand the American approach to dialogue and pluralism...
...positions of many Black leaders on the Palestinian question--Jackson himself met with YassirArafat in 1979 and spoke out for the Palestinian's need for a homeland. Some Jews think that these Black leaders lack and necessary qualifications and experience to enter the debate on the Middle East: Blacks resent these attempts to limit their views.

No matter that other black officials are often grudging in their praise and that they resent the publicity he attracts with his flashy appearances. "Groups do work when Jesse's not around, when the reporters and cameras aren't there," says veteran Activist and Atlanta City Councilman John Lewis. Yet most admit that the flamboyant and magnetic Jackson and the "Southern Crusade" run by his Operation PUSH...
