I would also want to know if he agrees with the Declaration of Independence that our rights are granted by God and are inalienable.

Romney made this vow as part of a mormon temple ritual:

"You and each of you covenant and promise before God, angels, and these witnesses at this altar, that you do accept the Law of Consecration as contained in the Doctrine and Covenants, in that you do consecrate yourselves, your time, talents, and everything with which the Lord has blessed you, or with which he may bless you, to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, for the building up of the Kingdom of God on the earth and for the establishment of Zion.

If Romney took the presidential oath of office would that affect our "Inalienable rights"?

Well, obviously there are folks around today who are convinced if Romney wins he’ll take orders from Salt Lake City, just like some folks were convinced if JFK won he’d take orders from Rome.

Coming from my own Calvinist perspective a number of Mormon believes seem odd to me, but I don’t have to become a Mormon to think Romney would make a good President. Sheesh.
