A black cardinal was one of the leading candidates.
But this American came out of nowhere; meaning conclave is impossible to predict.

Sometime around when they elect a female one.

They’ll elect a Jewish man before that happens.

We need a ranking of least likely to be pope demographics.

I mean, technically speaking, the best Christian of all was a Jew.

I don't think this way.
Many of the black or brown cardinals are uber conservative which would appeal to racists, who are traditionally conservative.
I am doubtful that the white cardinals are racist towards the black or brown ones and are far more ideologically driven than anything. They are all part of the same club.

True.
Here is a list of candidates and how they lean on social issues and the directions of the Catholic Church.
https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/world...f09ad53e&ei=44
Most of the liberals and reformers are from Europe and the Americas, while candidates from Africa and Asia tend to be more conservative and traditionalist (with the exception of Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle from the Philippines who is probably the most left leaning).
It seems pretty clear that the Church still wants to go in the direction of modernizing and chose a Pope to reflect that.

Best of all, an American Pope means no tariffs for the Vatican.
