Mitt Romney The Mormon

Im not sure who the 10% that says they cant vote for a mormon are, but im sure it scares me that the subtle religious differences keep people from taking a complete look at a candidate.

Like Mitt Romney or not, he is a man that has served America for his entire life. So why is it that the only thing the mainstream media can publisize is his religion and family life and how it may not be the same choice as yours?

He has accomplished much in office and is heralded as a great financial leader in business. I hope our readers will stop over at blogsformitt.com just once and see if they find his accomplishments worthy of respect. If you do, voice that and if you dont exercise that right as well.

I don’t see the weight of his religious belief being enough to discount all he has done for our nation.

Romney has a beautiful family, strong personal convictions and a dedication to his beliefs. Can we say that this is not the most important thing a man can possess?

A man is willing to believe in his tradiions, family and nation above all else and some grumpy old man is going to serve him up a biggoted comment like refusing to support a morman?


I, and Mitt im sure, respect the man’s right to choose.

People forget in this nation that it is your right to be a biggot, racist or sexist….a person has the right to believe unpopular views.

For this reason people can not vote for Mitt based on his religion if they choose…but it doesnt make it a smart line of thinking.

Any voter that judges a servant of our country like Mr Romney on his choices in his religion needs to reflect on their ability to judge a person on their merits.

While not my first choice, i would never be so ignorant as to judge a presidential hopeful on his personal beliefs.

(but I do have the American right to do so if i was so inclined)

Mitts response in the NH GOP debate to this topic.



Well, President Kennedy some time ago said he was not a Catholic running for president; he was an American running for president. And I’m happy — a proud member of my faith.

You know, I think it’s a fair question for people to ask, “What do you believe?” And I think, as you want to understand what I believe, you could recognize that the values that I have are the same values you’ll find in faiths across this country.

I believe in God, believe in the Bible, believe Jesus Christ is my savior. I believe that God created man in his image. I believe that the freedoms of man derive from inalienable rights that were given to us by God. And I also believe that there are some pundits out there that are hoping that I’ll distance myself from my church so that that’ll help me politically, and that’s not going to happen.

I hope that blogs for Mitt will recognize that we here like Mitt as a candidate, I honestly havnt sen anything wring with him representing my vote if he is the man for the Republicans.

We have judged this candidate like all the other by there service and merits and what they can offer the office of president. From Mitt Romney it may be a better economy, and if he gets the chance I look forward to supporting him in his service.

Now if only the ignorant half of the voting public can find the same ability to judge on preofessional merit, he may make it to Washington.
