I'm saying that I would be very wary of giving the power of the Presidency to someone whose first loyalty is to ANY institution other than the U. S. Constitution. And, I am very aware of how seriously mormons take their temple oaths. I am also aware of the power of Executive Orders.

I would be very wary of Giving the power of the presidency to nyone who did not believe in a higher power, specifically a Higher power that would judge him for his actions while in office.

Well I guess we had that with clinton...just who do you have in mind now? I don't have the ability, myself, to enter into the hearts of the candidates and see their relationship with a higher power.

I DO have the personal experience of being exposed to the attitudes of mormons who consider that "holding the priesthood" makes them very special and devoted to the mormon church, because they believe that their salvation lies therein...you do the math: Loyalty to country=earthly plaudits...loyalty to the mormon church=eternal salvation PLUS the admiration of their fellow mormons.
