"The 2012 presidential campaign, like many American debates, was partly a contest over ways of fitting America into %22providential history%22 - the classical story of a %22course of empire%22 and the biblical account of a %22chosen people.%22 This campaign in particular invited such analysis because both major candidates, Mitt Romney and Barack Obama, came out of communities (Mormon and African American) that have cultivated their own distinctive versions of the providential story. Reviewing the campaign and its aftermath in providentialist terms, therefore, helps reveal ways of thinking that continue to have a large influence on U.S. politics and political language." . .
