DJ is right Romney will be controlled by his LDS religion. No one here is saying that Mormons don’t have freedom to worship, but we also have the freedom to speak against Mormonism and warn others as well as the freedom to consider religious views in who we vote for or how we vote.

That is VERY American. Your attempt at silencing us RFE is what is un-American.

I have no intentions of voting for Romney but is has to do with his fake Conservative credentials and his inability to stand for anything. But if, for example, Romney was more like Orrin Hatch or to the right of him, would he then be acceptable? I kinda see RFEngineer's side on this. If a truly Conservative candidate was Mormon and running, could we support him? I totally disagree that Mormonism is Christian in any way and it IS a cult, but would having a Mormon as President really allow the Mormon hierarchy to essentially run the country? Wouldn't he still be bound by the laws and the Constitution?

I know people had the same concerns when John Kennedy was running. They were concerned that he would take orders from the Pope. But that did not happen - we know now that he was a Catholic in Name Only (CINO) - but I don't see how any religious leadership could take control of this country by having their own Manchurian candidate. It won't be like he can enact or mandate religious edicts or anything like that, right?

Again, let me clarify, I am totally against Mitt Romney for the Republican nominee because he is NOT a real Conservative, he is NOT Pro-life and he has no real defining standards that would make him a good president for America. But it is NOT because he is a Mormon. That is a totally different consideration for me.
