Pope Francis goes to Washington

Pope Francis greeted a cheering crowd outside the Apostolic Nunciature before making his way to the White House Wednesday morning.

Pope Francis left the Apostolic Nunciature to meet with President Barack Obama at the White House.

Mustering all the pageantry the White House has to offer, President Barack Obama welcomed Pope Francis to Washington on Wednesday and credited the pontiff for setting a moral example that is "shaking us out of our complacency" with his reminders to care for the poor and the planet.
