Mitt Romney, he looks like the poster boy for clean living and brylcreem, but is America ready for a Morman President? First of all a cantidates religion is of secondary importance to me, I want to know where he stands on policy, but often times a cantidates views are shaped by their respective religions. I am a Protestant Christian, of the tolerant Presbytrian/ Methodist branch. I don't begrudge a cantidate's faith or their bringing it up in speeches, but I have to admit that the Morman's have always seemed a bit out there to me. Now most of this view of mine is based on the decided right-wing slant, politically, of the Mormans I have known, the other stuff, the Jesus in Utah, the funny drawers, and the poligamy is just fuel for the fire. Now don't get me wrong the Mormans I have known are nice, polite people, I just don't like their politics, the same attitude I have against Southern Babtists and certain other denominations. Does this make me anti-Morman? Probally no more than not voting for Pat Buchanan make me anti-Catholic, but I do feel uneasy about a guy whose great-grandaddy had multiple wives.
