Hillary or Obama either one would beat Mitt to death with the "race card".

And LOSE BIG TIME with it. The Hillary/Obama will turn off white voters massively if they try the 'diversity' ticket. They tried tying Bush to the KKK in 2000, and it helped keep blacks 'on the plantation' but it didnt change the election.

The fact is that Mitt Romney's Dad was a Republican Civil Rights leader. It's a good counterpoint to any DNC attacks on this typical "they are racist" line against the GOP, which are defamatory, but predictable.

Church leader Bruce R. McConkie, on the denial of equality for Africans: 
Negroes in this life are denied the priesthood; under no circumstances can they hold this delegation of authority from the Almighty. The gospel message of salvation is not carried affirmatively to them... “Negroes are not equal with other races where the receipt of certain spiritual blessings are concerned...” (Mormon Doctrine, 1958, p. 477)
 
Future President of the Mormon church, Joseph Fielding Smith wrote:
Not only was Cain called upon to suffer, but because of his wickedness he became the father of an inferior race.”
(The Way to Perfection, page 101)
 
More from Smith:
There is a reason why one man is born black and with other disadvantages, while another is born white with great advantages. The reason is that we once had an estate before we came here, and were obedient; more or less, to the laws that were given us there.”
(Doctrines of Salvation, Vol. 1, page 61)


False Prophets and False Apostles?????

Will Romney ever call these bigots "racist"?

You have no way of knowing whether it changed the election or not. No way to know how many votes it may have swayed. If you want to say "Bush still won" that would be accurate.
