He should be blocked. A Mormon on the ticket would be a disaster. It doesn’t please me to say so. In fact, it’s pretty sad. But a principal advantage we have against Obama is fear and suspicion of his Islamic roots. Put a Mormon—a sect which many people also fear—on the ticket, and you dilute that advantage.

But Mormons aren't flying planes into buildings or strapping bombs to their chests.

What do many people fear of a Mormon?

I have many Mormon relatives. Two retired career US Army officers. My grandmother. My next door neighbors. All solidly conservative. (no I have never been Mormon, no I don’t live in Utah)

Never tried to convert me. What’s to fear?

Name one religion that has been more conservative and more pro-America and pro-constitution than the Mormons.
Comparing them to the Islamics is rediculous.
