Political-Economic Reforms for Cultural Change

Just curious.... 

Why is it more acceptable and easier for (Filipino progressive) intellectuals to vote, support, and defend the rhetoric and doublespeak of Obama and PNoy, but not the compelling message of Pope Francis and his attempts at (global) political-economic reforms?

I know that 'culture' is not only a practice to be observed and appreciated, but a real arena for struggle. But, I also believe in the strategic importance of political-economic reforms as decisive and pivotal in (re)creating culture concurrently or later on.
