I like the idea of "smaller" religions getting more public with our rituals. The candidate who would deal best with that is my favorite: Ron Paul. We'd see some real freedom of religion were he elected.
My issues with Romney's religion go much deeper than just not agreeing that his "faith" is irrelevant to my vote. It is worth studying up on Mormonism because it is growing so fast, and because it has such a hold on a lot of the businesses of the west. He can claim to act independently of his church, but I don't believe it. They will plague him until the day he dies and there is no escaping the fact that his church would actively influence his choices if he were elected. The only good thing about the Latter Day Saints having a candidate up is that they have the power to possibly be organized enough to prove that the Neocons have the voting machines rigged. He's betting that he can get the "good Christians" to vote for him because he's willing to swear on a bible and all, but I wonder if they are that ignorant. Are they that ignorant? We shall see. I have been apalled in the past at what people will vote for.
