Description

Jimmy Carter is widely viewed to be the most authentically Christian president that America has ever had. On this episode of Recollecting Carter, I talk with Dr. Neil J. Young about Carter's faith and why many Christian voters turned instead towards Ronald Reagan in the 1980 presidential election. Young's book We Gather Together: The Religious Right and the Problem of Interfaith Politics unpacks the complicated relationship between belief and political action.
