Bush's America: Inside the Rise of the Evangelical Right | FULL DOCUMENTARY

What happens when faith becomes a force in American politics? During George W. Bush’s re-election campaign, director Martin Meissonnier investigates the growing influence of the evangelical movement in the United States, from its rise in the 1980s to its role inside the Republican Party. The film enters the world of the Promise Keepers, a Christian men’s movement built around conservative and patriarchal values, and gives voice to evangelical figures including Paige Patterson and Pat Robertson. Their speeches connect faith, family, politics, media and the end times. Through field investigations, portraits of believers and interviews with religious leaders, the documentary examines the New Christian Right, its electoral influence, and the place of millenarian belief in American public life. A sober look at the relationship between religion, power and elections in modern America.
