von der Leyen nominated as European Commissioner

German defence minister Ursula von der Leyen has been nominated as the new President of the European Commission.

The European Parliament will now vote on her nomination.

And not a woman in a leadership role in the institutional Catholic Church.

The erroneous quotation fits: "Huston we have a problem".

Think of it, a German defence minister is nominated to a top job and then there is the Catholic Church.
