Description
If you want to see an interesting story about how christian evangelicals made abortion a political issue, hear it from the horses mouth. Frank Schaeffer and his father played a major role in the anti-abortion issue. Frank now regrets the role he has played in this issue. He says the reason why evangelicals joined the anti-abortion bandwagon was simply to raise money. Prior to that they were pro choice. Below is a link to an interview of Frank Schaeffer by Christiane Amanpour.

Here is a blurb about Frank, copied from wikipedia:
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_SchaefferFrank
"Schaeffer (born August 3, 1952) is an American author, film director, screenwriter, and public speaker. He is the son of theologian and author Francis Schaeffer. He became a Hollywood film director and author, writing several internationally acclaimed novels depicting life in a strict evangelical household including Portofino, Zermatt, and Saving Grandma.
While Schaeffer was a conservative, fundamentalist Christian in his youth, he has changed his views, becoming a liberal Democrat and a self-described Christian atheist."
