The Vatican has been a media hot spot all this week and NCR senior correspondent John L. Allen Jr. has been there covering the release of Pope Benedict's social encyclical and the lead up to the meeting between President Obama and Benedict XVI.

Allen talks with NCR editor Tom Fox about all these topics: High points and reactions to Caritas in Veritate, the mood in Rome ahead of the Obama's visit and what markers to look for to judge the outcome of the meeting between president and pontiff.
