Article VI (film)
Article VI: Faith. Politics. America is a documentary film at the intersection of faith, politics, and bigotry. Religious leaders, political pundits, and average citizens are asked who has the right to be elected? Has the Founding Fathers of the United States vision of religious freedom been upheld or violated? Article Six of the United States Constitution grants the right that no religious test shall be required to enter into elected public office. But have the citizens taken that right away? Would the religious and moral judgments of today have prevented Americans from electing some of their most beloved Presidents? Article VI investigates politics in the ever-changing world of religious tolerance and freedom.

Famous quotes containing the word article:
“In this great association we know no North, no South, no East, no West. This has been our pride for all these years. We have no political party. We never have inquired what anybody’s religion is. All we ever have asked is simply, “Do you believe in perfect equality for women?” This is the one article in our creed.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
