    Considering joining a missionary organization.

    That's cool. I might become a missionary after I am done with college. I have always wanted to be one, I just didn't know about any lay-catholic missions. Plus, they pay your student loans?!

    A better political party for American Catholics?

    I'm telling you, I looked at the Candidate List on the website and those were the only two. Allyson Kennedy and Donald Trump. Which, I'm not particularly enthused about any of the candidates running thus far. Hillary (Pro-Abortion), Donald (Pro-Torture, War Crimes, Death Penalty), Gary...

    A better political party for American Catholics?

    We're not allowed to write in candidates in Louisiana. I looked at the candidate database at the Secretary of State's office and only Donald Trump and Allyson Kennedy had registered for President thus far. So I don't know whats going on here in La.

    Have they fielded any candidates we can actually vote for? If not, then they are pretty much hypothetical in nature.
