I think it might be fine because all that I have known are very honest and trustworthy. They seem to have good morals. I just want to know your opinion. Please don't reply with any vulgar or gross comments. I just want opinion, not trash.

I would have no problem so long as he/she does a good job of raising the total economy and resolving diplomatic affairs without starting a war. I also belive, like all Americans should, that the church should be separated from the state; meaning that this person's religious beliefs should not be used to contradict our American rights. Although I am not a non-mormon who does not agree with most of their teachings, I do agree that they are very nice people.

Depends. If they are an active Mormon, then I'm just fine with it. Mormons (aka Latter-Day Saints) are taught to be honest in all their doings. They are encouraged to live a Christ-like life and to follow the golden rule (do unto others as you would have done unto you). They are encouraged to have high morals. A president with good morals is the kind of president I can trust.
If they call themself a Mormon but they cheat, lie, and/or commit crimes then I don't trust them. (If they did those things, I'd be wondering why they call themself a Mormon in the first place). I'm definitely NOT ok with a president who breaks the laws.

I am not a Mormon. However I have had contact with quite a few. Yes they do seem to be very honest people. I think they really are. They have other fine qualities also. The one that impresses me the most is their ability to raise children in the manner that they insist children be ladies and gentlemen very early on. Do you think that is why Mormons are very honest people? Could be!
Mormon President? No problem at all.

It would be better for the country to have a secular presidency as possible. George Bush likes to act like the Bible Belt guy, but he's really not. He's a drunken frat boy pulling a prank being egged on by Dick Cheney from the senior class. GWB just puts on the act to get support from the Christian constituency.

all presidents are Freemasons ,always have been and always will be .as well as being blood related .
34 presidents of the USA are blood related to the same ancestor in medi evil France.
so your dreams of mormon presidents is just that ,dreams
they just dont qualify
the Round table selects the presidents ,and the Bilderberg group runs them
what ever the circus of elections may want to project

Questionable morals, as they might consider changing the Constitution to accept polygamy.
Let's look at the problems that Kennedy had. Have we had a Catholic president since?

Well I disagree with a lot of Mormon doctrines but I definetly trust some of them with Politics anyways because they do stands for a lot of Moral values and respect rights of Christians and others.

I think it would be terrible. If people want a theocracy, please form another country with other countries(Iraq, Israel,etc) that prefer to base their lives on 2,000 year old documents.
Mormons just got wind that it might not be a good thing to offend people of other races, calling blacks spawns of devils probably wasn't a good move for them financially after the civil rights movement.

If their way of thinking matches mine then I do not see why not. I don't agree with their interpretations, but they are a loyal, moral, and disciplined people. We had one in office with zero morals for 8 years in the 90s so it would be refreshing.

Religion should have nothing to do with it. Political stances amd whether or not the candidate is a law abiding citizen should be the criterion here. And FYI: The LDS church does NOT practice polygamy... that's the FLDS church, which the US government is finally trying to shut down for their illegal activities. Get your facts straight please. I'm LDS and there is NO WAY I'll be sharing my husband. :D
