Bush and Religion

Paper Summary:

This paper examines how every American President has invoked God's blessing and how George W. Bush is no exception. It analyzes some of the religious remarks the President has made through his various speeches and comments on his religious quotes as well as examining the roots of his faith. It evaluates how with the vast material encountered about President's past, present and probable future, one can concur that his religious views influenced the war in Afghanistan and in Iraq. It looks at how Bush has used religion to increase his votes in the South and to guarantee his legitimacy with the American conservative electorate.

From the Paper:

"Politicians who used religious quotes or who follow some type of godly agenda are more likely to be perceived as just and having a greater sense of wisdom. Since there are many Gods but only one ruler, a modern country must obey this ruler decisions and it is not clear what kind of holy influence he or she follows. A quick fixing of this problem is the establishing of the words "good" and "evil" that may be well understood even by a child. Hence, it fair to say that, to some degree, all Presidents of the United States, including George W. Bush exercised their "papacy" according to their present circumstances and conveniences followed by the general interest. "
