Presidents taking the oath of office have traditionally placed their hand on a Bible.

George Washington began this tradition when he took his oath of office.

President Theodore Roosevelt is the only President reported to have not taken the oath of office with a Bible.

Faith in Christ runs deep in American politics, beginning with the first President. David Barton owns a Bible he says was printed by the United States Congress.

Thank God for our rich Christian heritage in America. May we all strive to preserve and promote it for the good of all our countrymen.
