Presented by Dinesh D’Souza

Best-selling author Dinesh D'Souza takes on all of America's critics and, according to his supporters, proves them wrong. As perhaps only a writer with an immigrant's understanding of this country can, he defends not an idealized America, but America as it really is, and measures America not against utopia, but against the rest of the world.

D'Souza argues that, more than any other country, America allows people the chance to "write the script of their own lives." This is why the idea of America is so appealing to immigrants and to young people around the world.

In his most recent best seller "What's So Great About Christianity," D'Souza is not afraid to explore the role of religion, or the lack of religion, in the upheavals that characterize the world today. A staunch defender of the superiority of Christianity as a foundation for democratic politics, D'Souza rejects any notion that all religions are equally prone to fundamentalism. He argues that ultimately you can't have Western civilization — and all we value from it — without the Christianity that gave it birth.
