From the article:

In fact, according to a Gallop poll released in June of last year, while 4 percent of people said they would not vote for a black president, a full 22 percent said they would not vote for a Mormon. In fact, only atheists and gays ranked higher.

This is the kind of pertinent information reflected in the title of the article.

I’m inspired by this Mormon theological idea: God intended for humans to be free to make our own choices and live with the consequences of those choices. The Founding Fathers of this country said essentially the same thing in the Declaration of Independence:

It may not occur to him that Joseph got these ideas from the environment around him.

No, not unless you are willing to invade other sovereign nations, bomb brown people and engage in imperialistic over reach for the economic gain of corporations. White, straight believing Christians do just fine in that regard, so why switch?
