How many of you knew that Mitt Romney was a Mormon? Amazingly, his religious beliefs have not been picked apart by the presses and has been kept quiet. Now, there is nothing wrong with Mormons, but the way the presses have worked over the last many elections, religion is usually one of the biggest determining factors for elections. However, I don't know what to think that the presses have not focused on this fact. Romney has not exactly emphasized his experience in the Mormon church. Does this mean that religion is becoming less of a determinant in who we elect? I say so. I honestly don't care what faith you have or if you have faith at all. I look at the issues and the facts, as most of the electorate and the presses seem to be focusing on. Good for them! (for more information, link below)
