Will America elect a Mormon president?




Obama is leading five other potential rivals but is in a dead heat with Romney, each with 47 percent among all Americans. But among registered voters only, the poll put Romney ahead, 49 percent to 46 percent.

It would be a big prob for Jesus freaks but they don't vote democrat anyway.

I like the multiple wives options they have, funding multiple wives would take more work than I'm keen with.
 
The religious righties definitely have an issue with Mormonism.
Harry Reid is a Mormon and no Dem gives a shit, as far as I know.

Romney's religion could cost the GOP millions of votes.
 
I'd bet money Romney if he wins will have higher GDP than Obama. And to freaks point, he'll do it by lowering corp taxes.
 
And so it begins...




A religious conservative group that spent part of the 2008 campaign attacking Mitt Romney is pledging to take on the candidate again during his second run for the White House.




Bob Enyart, a spokesman for American Right To Life, told The Huffington Post that his organization would launch ads targeting Romney...

People said JFK wasn't electable because he was a catholic. People worried about the Pope actually being in charge of our nation.
 
Since fundie conservatives are attacking the mormon, doesn't it kind of prove they stand on their prinicples, even if they are not what you believe in? Wouldn't you be calling them hypocrites if the simply backed the guy leading in the polls?

The tea partiers want vote for him.

Which means he won't win the rep nomination.

The Tea Party is hardly a force to be reckoned with, if their declining support among voters is any indication.

But keep on splitting the GOP vote, Liability. Obama will thank you for it.
 
The attacks from the Right have already commenced....

Of course he is electable. They elected a monkey before Obama, didn't they?

But more seriously: Any man who desires to serve the state from a position of public office should NOT have a personal agenda that differs from his publicly announced intent.
Mormons are fierce evangelists (and they wear magic underwear!) and as such should, like all fundementalists, be barred from holding government office.)
But, of course, this is America....... where good sense and logic are like rocking horse shit.
 
There are (and have been) many Mormon elected officials in American public life.


Given that the belief that Mormonism is a 'cult' is held by a significant proportion of the GOP base, it's possible that a Republican Mormon presidential candidate may truly be unelectable.
 
If Romney is tied with Obama amongst all Americans, both citizens and subjects (non-voters) and ahead amongst registered voters (citizens), then he's doing alright.

I wonder that you have so little to occupy your minds. Most countries give notice of an election timed in weeks, but not America. You start canvassing for the next one before the first one is even run!
Imagine being able to live your lives without all this nonsense. Imagine being able to let the person who is democratically elected actually do the job you pay them for.
Think how many extra hours you could spend fishing or simply vegging out.
It is funny though, watching the republicans grabbing at straws, trying to find someone, anyone ... anyTHING to represent them! Sarah Plain or some member of an almost obscure American only cult, who has a name like an article of clothing, and all those other Warhol's wannabees.
