from Illinois, has m ade religion a
signature part o f his cam paign
through his ow n public appear
ances in places w here Dem ocrats
rarely venture, and a faith-based
voter m obilization, topped by fo
rum s in Iowa, N ew H am pshire and
South C arolina that could prove
key to organizing.
A member o f the liberal United
Church of Christ, O bam a has said he
was raised in a nonreligious home
and had a conversion experience
after doing com munity organizing in
Chicago churches. He spoke last
year — before announcing his can
didacy — o f a desire to tackle "mu
tual suspicion" between religious
and secular America.
He invokes biblical imagery, say
ing that because government alone
cannot solve problems, "we have an
individual responsibility."
