The Protestants
The United States as a nation was founded and formed largely by Protestants, who remain a powerful national group. Out of the all the men who have been presidents of the United States, only one (John F. Kennedy, a Roman Catholic) was not either a Protestant or from a Protestant family background. Hundreds of Protestant affiliations and sects exist. We'll examine some of the larger ones (more than a million adherents each) in descending order of size (number of adherents).
