Harry Reid is the U.S. Senate Majority Leader; a strong and outspoken Democrat. He also happens to be a Mormon. I've seen a lot of people questioning whether Mitt Romney could be elected because he's Mormon and was just wondering if it was ever an issue with Sen. Reid. Anyone know? It obviously wouldn't be an issue with Orin Hatch, because he's from Utah. I personall don't understand why it's an issue, as politics/government don't really mix, unless you consider their morals. The Mormon church doesn't tell you how to vote or what you must do, but tells its members to become educated and active in their communites, and in the end make their own decisions. I'm guessing Romney wouldn't be any different then Reid as far as the Mormon influence goes. I'm not sure why people think it would. Maybe just unfamiliarity with the Church and its members.
Honest question, just wondering if anyone may know if it came up with Reid.
