The Audacity of Faith: A Study of Barack Obama's Religious Views and How they could Shape his United States Presidency

Ross, Zachary 23 April 2010 (has links)
During the 2008 Presidential election, questions concerning Barack Obama’s religious views arose. Specifically, the controversy surrounding Obama’s former pastor, Jeremiah Wright, caused some people to wonder how Wright’s theology may have influenced Obama.

This thesis compares and contrasts Obama’s religious perspective with that of James Cone.
