American religious history professor Randall Balmer talked about his book, God in the White House: A History - How Faith Shaped the Presidency from John F. Kennedy to George W. Bush, published by HarperOne. His book profiles the religiosity of American presidents ranging from John F. Kennedy to George W. Bush.
