But there’s not a single nationally known mormon politician who is a conservative.
The reason for that is explained in my tagline.
The lds-org does NOT believe that mankind is a fallen, sinful creature.
From that reality springs the Founding Fathers belief in:
(1) checks and balances of power,
(2) a tri-partite government, split evenly between executive, legislative and judicial,
(3) the electoral college, balancing the weight of small populations in rural areas with large amounts of people in the cities.

As I said I know nothing about Mormonism,except that lots of them are in Kirtland, OH just a couple dozen miles from my house. I also know thaty the ozmonds are Mormons and that the Mormons have a real good choir.
