The bible calls it "becoming joint heirs with Christ" Your priorities may not lie with where the leadership of the nation needs to point, but mine does. Cheers.
[The doctrine of becoming an heir of God through the gospel of Jesus Christ was noted by Paul (Rom. 8:14-17; Gal. 3:26-29; 4:1-7; see also Calling and Election; Church of the Firstborn). In this connection, THE CHURCH of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints teaches that all humans are spirit sons and daughters of God, with the potential of inheriting all that the Father has (D&C 84:33-38). Every member of the human family is a child of God. However, through obedience to the gospel of Jesus Christ, including having faith, love, charity, and participating in temple ordinances and sealings, men and women can become heirs of God in a special way. Such persons are called the “children of Christ, his sons and his daughters,” being “spiritually begotten” by him (Mosiah 5:7). They will be exalted in the Celestial Kingdom. Members of the Church make several covenants with God, beginning with baptism and continuing through the temple Endowment and marriage, by which they promise to obey God’s commandments and to consecrate to him all that they possess in order to become heirs through Christ in the Father’s kingdom. Such may eventually be exalted by God and be given many divine powers, including eternal increase.

Yup, you guys are on a fast track to nuts. Are you telling us you aren’t bothered that Romney believes he may “eventually be exalted by God and be given many divine powers, including eternal increase.” ? ?
