When he ran for POTUS, I think that he changed his message in an attempt to capture the Republican right, which is probably the most valuable portion of the party since they do so well at actually voting. Honestly, if he had stayed true to his message as governor, I would have thought about voting for him, but that went away almost as soon as he declared for President.

I understand your disagreement. But I think your wrong, just known too many ex-LDS members. I think Mitts changing positions are a sign of a couple things including a willingness within the LDS membership and church doctrine to support dishonesty in an attempt to do what they see as the right thing.

I believe you've just answered your own question.
This is the same type of misinformation and half truths used against the Irish and the Italians around the turn of the last century. It was racist then and it's racist now.
