Straw poll win at Utah GOP convention doesn't really mean much
9 comments | Read story
However, if Utahns are really the Patriots they call
themselves they really will shed the temptation to
vote for a Mormon candidate (whomever he might be)
and vote for the one TRUE conservative; Texas
Republican Ron Paul.
I would like to remind Utahns of how unfavorably
Mitt Romney was received during 2002. Despite his
Olympic Infamy, he has somehow managed to woo back
at least 80% of Utahns. There is an obvious rhyme
to your reasons Utah, and it has nothing to do with
Mitt Romney. As a conservative and a Utahn I
promise you, Ron Paul is truly our new hope for
America.
On the issue of LDS voting for Mitt Romney. Mormons of all the religion in the world do not influence their members as to whom they will vote for. You cant even see any endorsements from its Leaders compared to most other evangelical sects who are blatantly making endorsements not allowing their members to choose for their own. Do not ever think that Mormons are going to be influenced by Mitt Romney because He is a Mormon. Utah Mormons will vote using their conscience and their patriotic duty as an American.
"Why of course the people don't want war... But after all it is the leaders�who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along�that is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country." Hermann Georing - Nazi commander, Nuremberg Trials
GBH, Aug 2005 on the BofM�s �descriptions of the problems of today�s society�The people succumbed to the wiles of ambitious and scheming leaders who � led the people into terrible wars.�
Benson, 1972, publicly reiterated The First Presidency�s guideline of �supporting political candidates �who are truly dedicated to the Constitution in the tradition of our Founding Fathers.��
Please wake up before it's too late.
From my deployment to Iraq and an in depth study of the constitution and founding era documents, I feel that the greatest dangers to our country is the people not knowing what government policy will make us free. This is why Ron Paul is seen as an outsider. I feel that it will not take a person long to realize that, after a study of the intent of the constitution, that Ron Paul is actually the candidate whom Americans would want the most to protect our liberty. This is because he understands the principles of the constitution and has the track record of voting in accordance with them as a Congressman.
