NYT Magazine Features Sen. Rick Santorum

The New York Times Magazine this morning carries a picture of Senator Rick Santorum on its cover and features a long article profiling him. Santorum is a leading proponent of funding faith-based social services. His conservative Catholic beliefs strongly influence the policies he promotes. Michael Sokolove, the author of the article, contrasts Santorum's views with those of President John F. Kennedy who supported clear separation of church and state: "It is fair to say that Santorum believes in a more complementary relationship between church and state-- respective jurisdictions, yes, but with many more bridges and emissaries connecting them."
