I put Kasper and Martini (SJ!) because I have followed them for some time now, and read some of their works, especially Martini's. I have his "Testimony of St. Paul" (I think that is the title; marvelous meditations on the life and teachings of Paul, very insightful), "The Beauty that Saves the World" and (in Italian, even though it is from a retreat he preached in English), "My Weakness is My Strength" (again, with a strong Pauline orientation!).
I also like Lustiger, but that is really because he is a convert, and I think it would be neat to have a Jewish Pope, especially one whose family suffered in the Holocaust. Such a one would sort of "sum up" in himself the travails of the 20th century. (And I do think Lustiger was a good "pastor" type bishop, too. That is SO important!)
