Linda talks with Andy Kohut, director of the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press. Kohut discusses the results of a new survey which shows a growth of politics in American religion. Kohut says there's a marked increase in the intermingling of politics and religion since the 1960s. The Pew survey shows white, evangelical Christians are the most important force in politics today - one third of all Republicans report they are white, evangelical Christians.
