Comments about ‘Romney to share role of faith in his life’

I believe that like all people, candidate Romney's personal faith will continue to play a role in his life. To think otherwise defies common sense. All of us view the world through the lens of our own experience. What want a President of the United States who will honestly state the principles upon which he or she will govern and then remain true to those principles. I seek a President who will make decisions that will strengthen the most important of all human institutions, the family. I expect integrity from all elected officials, an uncompromising commitment to lead with candor and honesty. I desire a Commander in Chief who will unflinchingly defend the interests of the United States of America from all enemies, foreign and domestic. I expect the President to select individuals to serve in the executive branch who shares these same attributes and who will faithfully carry out the laws of the United States of America. I expect a President to nominate as federal judges only those who respect the role of the legislative and executive branches. God help us all if being a person of faith, Mormon or otherwise, disqualifies one who would lead using these principles.

Hand picked attendees? Mitt remains true to the precedent set by President Bush. Seems like Romney deserves the Republican nomination. Democracy's time-honored right of dissention is truly dead. Long live the King.

Good luck Mitt!! There's a lot of bias out there and, hopefully, you can diffuse some of it.

If being a Republican means you don't believe in the separation of church and state, then I want out. The GOP house seems to be full of weirdos that want to define it only their way (same as these so called 'Christian' churches).

Good luck, Mitt!!!

This is a very good story / commentary. One should also remember that
Mitt Romney's father, George, served as a three term governor of Michigan
in the 1960's and his faith did not play a part in his political - elective life back then. He also ran against Nixon for the Republican nomination in 1968 and was Nixon's HUD Secretary. He was the first Nixon appointee to recongnize the problems of that administration and resign in protest. I believe
Mitt will have the same kind of integrety that his Dad had. ( I probably wil not
vote forMitt because I am a liberal independent - Democrat.

I don't care what role mormonism plays in the mitts life. That would be morbid curiousity on my part. What I want to know is, as president, what role his faith would NOT play in my life. Or anyone else's, for that matter.
I guess, as an aside, someone should ask him about lesser matters, like how the hell we're going to get out of the stupid Iraq fiasco we're all inheriting like a 10 pound goiter from this administration. Or other, lesser important stuff.

Whatever the outcome is, I support you, Mitt. Go Mitt!

Good luck Mitt. You're in my prayers.

Romney has lost support, or failed to gain it, because people are not certain of his beliefs, or that he is even a Christian. he would be better served to have a little backbone and come out and succinctly state his core beliefs. for some reason, politicians now believe that to ealk around the issue or about it, rather than tackle it, somehow gives them an edge to wiggle against criticism later. I would like to know what he believe and why, and how it has impacted his life and ability to govern. it may be a risk, but he would be the only person in the race to to be bold enough to do it. I think the nation is tired of waffling politicians that say what the people want to hear, rather than what they beleive. Just look at voter turn out.

Maybe Mitt, with his liberal slant, can knock some sense into our Aryan-like NeoCon Mormons.

I thought giving this speech was a mistake, politically speaking. Having watched it, and watched the political pundits analyze it, I think it was a very positive thing. Good job, Camp Mitt!

Having watched the speech I would say that he did what he needed to do. It was inspiring and certainly presidential. I don't know what more people could ask for without being petty and critical for the sake of being petty and critical.

Mitt is mormon and a devout mormon and that is very unnerving because any devout mormon will defintely be influenced by his religious leader(Gordon B. Hinckley) and if you understand how mormons are and how they work, then you would NOT vote for any mormon to the presidency. I was raised mormon and know first hand that their agenda is to take over the entire world theologically. I have been taught that all my life growing up in the mormon church. They eventually plan to have their doctrines practiced among all people and all nations around the globe and if they get their foot into the white house, then of course as many cabinet members as possible will be mormons (or at least ones they believe to be potential mormons) and then as many mormons will be appointed to other governmental offices as possible. This means polygamy will eventually become a law(which is completely degrading to women and children)and they will try to procreate even more mormons to beat their main arch enemy which is the Roman Catholic Church. They will never tell a non-mormon this, but this is their agenda.

We are voting for Hillary!
God bless Hillary!!!!

Voting for Hillary is like voting for Ru Paul (Not Ron Paul). I wouldn't comment on this article if I were a democrat.

I'm not sure what all the fuss is. Every politician is influenced by their beliefs, religious and otherwise. (Ever heard of a Political Action Committee?) I'd rather have Gordon B. Hinkley, the Pope or Billy Graham influencing our president than some paid lobbyist.

Keep in mind that ex-(name your organization) have some axe to grind, that's why they are no longer members of that organization.

So vote for Hillary, or Obama or Fred Jaborski! Go for it! That's what we are all about.

I'm a fan of both of the Bush Presidents, I still believe in the one in office now. And I am a big fan of Mitt Romney, he has the morals that this country really needs and the brains to carry out the problems of the country and get it on the right track. The fact that he has a religios belief should not stand in his way. It should be a positive thing.

Voting for Hilary is like voting for communism.
