Steve-
This race has been a crazy one hasn't it? The Democrats are definitely keeping everyone on their toes :)
I was just wondering if you have heard of the film "Article VI: Faith. Politics. America." Religion and politics has been such a hot topic during this 2008 election. For some people, religion is the deal-breaker. This widespread reaction became the spark for filmmaker Bryan Hall’s new documentary. This film is an intense discussion of the role of faith in politics. It examines the practice of religious tests in the political process, imposed both officially by governments and unofficially by individuals. The title is taken from Article Six of the United States Constitution: "no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."
If you haven't seen the trailer I suggest you check it out:
