Uhm, pretty sure being a baptized Catholic is pretty much the only requirement...

From Wikipedia:

The pope does not need to be a cardinal elector or indeed a cardinal; since the pope is the bishop of Rome, only those who can be ordained a bishop can be elected, which means that any male baptized Catholic is eligible.
