I was watching a video on the 1928 Election and noticed that the Upper South (Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, and North Carolina) of the Democratic Solid South went to Herbert Hoover and I heard one of the reasons that Al Smith lost those states was because he was a Catholic. My question is Why was it a bad trait to be a Catholic running for President? Why was there a fear of a Catholic being President of the United States back then?
