Read this excerpt from a speech by televangelist Jerry Falwell, 1980. We must reverse the trend America finds herself in today. Young people between the ages of twenty-five and forty have been born and reared in a different world than Americans of years past. The television set has been their primary baby-sitter. From the television set they have learned situation ethics. . . . [T]hey have learned a loss of respect for human life. They have learned to disrespect the family as God has established it. They have been educated in a public-school system that is permeated with secular humanism. They have been taught that the Bible is just another book of literature. They have been taught that there are no absolutes in our world today. They have been introduced to the drug culture. . . . These same young people have been reared under the influence of a government that has taught them socialism and welfarism.

Which of the following is an example of how the growth of the sentiments expressed in the excerpt influenced politics?

A Supreme Court case upheld school rules that mandated prayer in schools.
The Supreme Court legalized abortion through Roe v. Wade.
The Reagan Revolution ushered in conservative policies.
Born-again Christian Jimmy Carter was elected president in 1980.
