From the press release:
“Johnny Cash’s America examines how Johnny became the most authentic celebrity voice our country had. He embraced all of America’s diversity without prejudice or partisanship and he had so much clout with the American people that every president in office during his lifetime courted Johnny Cash. Both the right and the left claimed him, although he remained non partisan. He was championed by teenage punks, their parents, and their grandparents. He was embraced by soldiers and anarchists, by conservatives and liberals, yuppies and rednecks. When times demanded change, he was not afraid to change with them. When times were good, he sang in celebration. Untainted by partisanship and spin, Cash still remains a rare bridge in our culture.”
