August 25, 2006
Could Thomas Jefferson be elected president today? Could Dwight D. Eisenhower? Could any candidate who doesn't have a strong religious faith or doesn't speak openly about it win the White House?

Suarez offered a preview of the book in a speech at the Chautauqua Institution on Aug. 2.
