I would be concerned if candidates, who are not Catholics, would go to the cardinal and give him big amount!
Is it really money, which bridges the church and the state? A big no! the members of the church happen to be also citizens of a country .. which is why I would say, MORALITY is the bridge between Church and State! And the firm ground for this is the INDIVIDUAL CONSCIENCE of every person as member of the Church and citizen of a country.
Sad to say, this is not always the case for Catholics in politics!
