This documentary explores the historical acts that have firmly cemented religion and politics in America, drawing on fascinating input from infamous figures such as Jerry Falwell and Ralph Reed, while also examining Bush's own religious leanings. Filmmaker Calvin Skaggs carefully explains how Bush's beliefs have helped inform key parts of his decision-making process during his tenure as president, making for some controversial, albeit nonpartisan, views.

3/5

Pablo Villaca

Faz um bom trabalho ao analisar os últimos 50 anos da política norte-americana e a crescente aproximação entre Republicanos e evangélicos (e sua insistência em escutar até imbecis como Falwell é louvável). Pena que perca o foco em seu terço final.

Urban Cinefile Critics

With footage of Muslims burning effigies, Andrew Denton begins by setting out the film's agenda: if we are witnessing a clash of civilisations, and we often see public portrayals of fundamentalist Muslim activity, how do they see our Christian evangelists

Should be mandatory viewing for those interested in the dominant intersection between religion and politics.

New Yorkers still won dering how President Bush got re-elected may learn something from this comprehensive British TV documentary.

Stephen Holden

Our turbulent political climate is so clogged with the instant hysteria demanded by the chattering class to keep its voice in shouting condition that a sedate documentary examining the long-term weather patterns is a welcome respite from the noise.

Convincingly maintains that the evangelical movement reached its political apotheosis in the person of born-again prodigal son George W. Bush.
