Question for folks that have this problem with Obama: what do/did you think about Romney? Because in many ways, the LDS church has many of the same issues, albeit with a much different bent.
Honestly, it seems like the same issue with a fake mustache on it to me. Romney's Mormonism was never an issue for me. The fact that he went from being a moderate to conservative Republican was, but his religion never factored into it at all.
And Huckabee's an actual pastor in the Southern Babtist church, which was a bastion of segregation for years. Then again, he's always been consistent about being a conservative.
If the candidate's platform does not reflect the agenda of the church that he choses to attend, can someone explain to me why it is an issue at all? Churches are just as much a social outlet as they are a concentration of philosphical thought.
