Absolutely. And there have been dramatic and unprecedented basic changes in America's policies that are deeply concerning to me. It's not Democratic versus Republican. It's not liberal versus conservative. These are radical changes compared to what was done in all previous administrations, including George Bush Sr. and Dwight Eisenhower and Gerald Ford and Ronald Reagan.

and all democratic presidents as well. These are radical changes, and that's what I thought I'd devote my time to. It's my first book that's been about political issues.

That's true, in religion and in politics. And lately, what's been of great concern, in addition to what I've already said, is the merger of the two, the merger of religion and politics. Because I happen to be a Christian, and I think that my religion teaches me that you should render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, unto God the things that are God's.

And Thomas Jefferson, one of our founding fathers, said that we should build a wall between the church and state. That wall is being deliberately and ostentatiously, not secretly, broken down.

Well, as a matter of fact, in the year 2000, I think the Democrats won. So it did reflect that. Yeah. And in 2004, the results of election were predictably distorted because about 9 or 10 percent of the American people will tell you today that they vote for the incumbent president even if they don't agree with him or his policies.

as long as he is the commander-in-chief of our young men and women overseas with their lives in danger. So there's a tremendous effect of patriotism in this country. And I think that patriotic inclination was strongly savaged, but also very greatly utilized by the Republicans. And that changes the politics of it.
