Pope Francis Renews Argentinian Passport The People's Pope is dodging tradition again. As pontiff, he's entitled to a Vatican passport and its privileges but Pope Francis didn't want special treatment. He suffered through the hassle of renewing his Argentinian passport. He even wore his papal robes and skull cap for the photo and paid $55 of his own money. Just like the rest of the world, Pope Francis will have to wait for the passport to be processed.
