Aren't African Americans and Catholics currently even at one president each?
How many Presidential elections have African Americans lost?
(hint: It's between -1 and 1. We've lost two out of three tries. )
Although of course Barack Obama himself didn't descend from those former slaves, so the way you phrased it, you could argue Catholics are leading one to nil...
Well, he all but posed as one, and it WAS considered a win for them...

The novels are very good and as RT says, more anti-religious authority than anti-religion.

I liked the Golden Compass adaptation well enough. But then I read the book.

I actually really didn't like the novels. I found them bleak, nihilistic, and not very well written.
