Donny Osmond On Fellow Mormon Mitt Romney
"I"m a singer. Some people have those [political] aspirations. I don't. I"m an entertainer. I get up on stage and I try to make people enjoy my music, and that political arena -- I'm going to stay out of it, right out," Donny told me. "I"m glad some people like it, but it's just not for me. My political ideas and things like that, even my religion, I try to keep close to me because it's a personal thing, and I don't shove it down people's throats. I don't condemn any artist that wants to do that, like the Baldwins. That's their choice. But in my world, I'm just an entertainer." Ref. Source 6
Romney: "As President I will Protect the Sanctity of Human Life"
Mitt Romney made the pledge Thursday night during his GOP presidential nomination acceptance speech that pro-life Americans wanted to hear. Romney not only promised he would be a pro-life president but said he would affirm the freedom of religion that has been under attack by the Obama pro-abortion HHS mandate.
"As president, I will protect the sanctity of life. I will honor the institution of marriage. And I will guarantee America's first liberty: the freedom of religion," he said.
During the speech, Romney hit back at the false War on Women attack launched by Democrats and abortion activists. Ref. Source 1
How many people will vote for a Mormon candidate? Seriously? Does he stand a chance? I don't think so. I don't see Romney as a strong candidate and his changing of heart on different topics is scary.
Church Members Share Moving Story of Romney Helping Disabled Son
While most of the attention on Thursday night went to Mitt Romney's nomination acceptance speech or the speech by Marco Rubio, two members of Mitt Romney's church told a touching story about the candidate that will resonate with voters.
Ted and Pat Oparowski, who lived in Massachusetts in the 1970s and went to church with Romney, shared a story about how their 14 year-old son David was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease in 1979. After the diagnosis, Romney visited David frequently. Ref. Source 5
Mitt will get a lot more support from the religious voters with the Democrats debating over "God" in their own conventions. I may give Mitt my vote, I don't like the directions the Dems are taking.
Will Mitt Romney Help Non-Mormons?
Attendee Sheila Healy from New York noted "His wife is pretty." and "When he was head of the Mormon church in Boston, he took care of his flock," she allowed, before finding fault. "The question is whether he would help people who are not Mormon. I don't think so." Ref. Source 4
It was not totally clear, what you were trying to say, but ?
But here is goes, the LDS/Mormon President and Prophet is not just for the LDS Church, but for the entire world, including non LDS members. A Stake President and a Ward Bishop is like wise, a Stake President or Bishop over everyone in their area, not just the LDS members.
If Romney is truly Mormon/LDS, he would consider all, his concern, and not put one above another.
We like Christ, do not force our wills on others,but try to lovingly share the truths that we live by and hold dear; even though that may not come across so well all of the time, we are after all human and do err.
