Description

Explore how religion shaped American electoral politics during the pivotal 1988 presidential election in this Routledge analysis. The 1988 campaign brought religious influence into sharp focus as two ministers, Pat Robertson and Jesse Jackson, mobilised key religious constituencies to secure their party's presidential nominations. Beyond these high-profile candidates, numerous religious groups-from Catholic bishops to the Jewish community-actively sought to influence the election outcome. This study examines how religion became a critical factor determining the ballots cast by millions of Americans and argues that as the twentieth century approached its conclusion, religious belief would remain a powerful and enduring force in American electoral politics. Essential reading for understanding the intersection of faith and voting behaviour in modern American democracy.
