Mormonism is a Christian religion not a cult or sect. Mormons do not want to overthrow the constitution and are not told how to vote. Leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints only ask that members be engaged in the political process in an informed and civil manner. You can get a lot more information on www.LDS.org under the newsroom. Here is some of what the website states under politics. "The Church''s mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, not to elect politicians. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is neutral in matters of party politics. This applies in all the many nations in which it is established." Also the church states that is does not endorse, promote or oppose political parties, candidates of platforms. They do not attempt to direct or dictate to a government leader.

I can tell you as a member of the LDS Church that I have never heard any leader tell a congregation how they should vote. The LDS Church does not allow any political format to use their buildings. I think that really proves that they don''t have a political agenda hidden or otherwise.

It surprises me in elections how many other churches don''t separate Church & State.

I hope this helps and encourage you to use www.LDS.org if you have any further questions.

"The future of Michigan is bright and I will not rest until Michigan is back," he proclaimed in a get-out-the vote rally Tuesday morning."

yeah. Losing over 76,000 jobs in one year and having a housing industry so bad that there is significant flight from even the best homes--sure looks bright....and with a recession looming, the worst is yet to come--no Republican will clean this up. Let''s correct Romney''s comment, shall we?


CORRECTION:

"The future of Michigan is bright and I will not rest until Michigan is FLAT ON ITS back," he proclaimed in a get-out-the vote rally Tuesday morning.

Is it true that Romney is a member of a secret Mormon sect that is planning the overthrow of our Constitutional system in favor of a government run by the Mormon Church?

[johnfrost-2009]

Mitt Romney is my choice for President.
His program is close very close to Tom Tancredo''s program.
Obama is Bush''s OPEN BORDERS boy

Defeat all Open Borders candidates and elect Mitt Romney for Prez!!!!

Great win my Mitt Romney in Michigan where John McCain won in 2000 with 56% of the vote.

Mitt....aka "Mr. Fixer" will go on to win the GOP nomination and be elected the 44th President of the USA because "it''s the economy stupid" and America is the largest enterprise in the world.

Who do you want running the largest enterprise Mitt Romney or candidates who are "lawyers"?

The choice is clear and Washington DC is broke.

It time we elect Mitt Romney to "finally" take care of the domestic problems this nation faces.

No one else running is even qualified....

GO MITT !

We can all talk about the past, but what about now and the future ? Presently the CNP Council for National Policy is planning your future. This secretive organisation of several hundred of the richest men in the USA put Bush & Cheney in office to accomplish their global agenda. In September 2007 they met again in Salt Lake City. Cheney & Mitt Romney were keynote speakers. Romney wants their backing. The CNP wants to continue their agenda in global market control for BIG OIL & allied industry in the next election. National media outlets are owned by their members. Who will expose them? Who will stop their insanity and destruction of constitutional freedom ? Who will stop their misuse of the military to promote their global agenda ?

Economics 101

Understanding how the self-absorbed and self-destructive Clintons helped to build and then initiate the destruction of the US economy to this day.

1. Every intelligent mind should know by now that THE UNPROVOKED & ARROGANT BUSH WAR IS THE MAJOR CAUSE OF THE PRESENT DESTRUCTION OF THE US ECONOMY?

2. The huge depletion of the US treasury gives rise to inflationary pressures, weakening of the dollar and a huge loss of confidence in the fundamentals of the US economy by business people THE WORLD OVER.

3. Every alert American must have known that bush wasn''t qualified to lead the nation, and that Al Gore would have continued the successful economic policies of his and the Clintons'' administration.

4. So why were the American people so careless and mindless in allowing the bungling bush over Gore?

5. The American people allowed the bungling bush over Gore because they were disgusted by the Clintons misbehavior, which fouled the White House, destroyed what marriage they had and undermine the US Presidency.

6. That self-destructive behavior by the self-absorbed Clintons was what initiated the undermining of the US Presidency and allowed the bungling bush to get a chance to mindlessly wage a foolish, UNPROVOKED war that subsequently empty the national treasury and destroyed the US economy.

7. Only the most ASLEEP/careless Americans would want/wander into another round of the Clinton destructiveness. NO CLINTON THIRD TERM! END THE SELF-DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA!

Who was our first 44th president?

[sgtrds]

we dont need a leader as much as we need politicians that do what their told.

RAmen. The worst thing the moron in the White House has done is to forget that HE works for US and that he''s not a king or dictator who is above our wishes. We don''t need another leader as much as we need a president who realizes that they are a public servant first and foremost.
