Why fuss over religion?
What happened to freedom of religion? I think that we should all have equal opportunities to run for whatever post we want to, without regard to our religion. The controversy should really be on what kind of a person the candidates are, not their personal beliefs.
I am a Mormon. Mormons do not do strange rituals or grow horns. We are ordinary people with an ordinary Christian belief. If you do not understand Mormonism, maybe you should ask a Mormon, instead of watching a documentary made by someone else who doesn't understand it.
