Write an op-ed for the New York Times on the intersection of faith and politics in the UK versus the US. Point out that in the UK, politicians are not afraid to declare themselves atheists. Lament that in the US, every presidential candidate from both parties feels compelled to profess faith in Jesus. Note, of course, that Republicans are far worse, with candidates openly rejecting evolution and affirming that every word (every word!) of the Bible is true. In the tagline to the op-ed, mention the title of the book. Also do another round of TV interviews, decrying the role of religion is US politics. Call America stupid. That will garner attention. As an added bonus, it's true.
