I am not Mormon and I smoke and I drink yet I have no difficulty in working with them. We have a common vision for the country.

When I get a call or a resumé or Academic CV hits my desk we do not question faith, we only require that they be of faith. That qualification is usually reflected in the biography. Character shows and shines.

I'm a middleman. If we find an individual with leadership qualities and potential we do little to directly assist them. We point out possibilities and we open doors. We make introductions and write referrals and recommendations. We put our reputations on the line with every sponsorship. They have to do the work themselves.

We aren't looking for Mormons, they just dominate the able and ambitious pool of possibilities.

We, we, we...all the way home. Sounds like you've fallen for their PR campaign. BTW, who is "we."

_______________________________________________

Whats smoking and drinking got to do with anything ???

Joey Smith and Briggie Young both drank booze...

Smith smoked while Young denounced it as unhealthy but hew didnt ban it...

But Joey Smith ran a bar in his hotel...

and wrote a doctrine of bathing in the stuff...

and Briggie Young had a monopoly on the beer industry in the Utah territory with his own huge brewery...

and the booze of all kinds flowed at Briggies parties...

and mormon do have to “sustain” Smith anfd Young...

"We aren't looking for Mormons, they just dominate the able and ambitious pool of possibilities."

Profiling by any other name stinks just as offensively.
