Obama/ Romney 2012: On the issues!

I did a little research of my own on the two remaining Presidential candidates and their stated positions on a host of issues. The linked website lists and includes quotes from the candidates themselves, therefore it is completely unbiased. I did this because I want to make an informed decision at the polls and help others to do so as well. A decision that is color and party blind. Also included i...
s their individual stated opinion on the belief in and nature of God, which is important to me personally. Enjoy!

President Barack Obama issue positions: http://votesmart.org/candidate/political-courage-test/9490/barack-obama-ii/
Stated opinion on belief in and nature of God:
In a 2004 interview. with Cathleen Falsani, Barack Obama said, “I believe that there are many paths to the same place.” Obama also said, “All people of faith—Christians, Jews, Muslims, animists, everyone knows the same God.”

Senator Mitt Romney issue positions:

Stated opinion on belief in and nature of God:
Mitt Romney is a self admitted life long Mormon. Mormon founder and leader Joseph Smith believed and Mormonism today teaches that God was not always God: “We have imagined and supposed that God was God from all eternity. I will refute that idea, and take away the veil, so that you may see clearly....and that he was once a man like us; yea, that God the Father of us all, dwelt on an earth, the same as Jesus Christ himself did, and I will show it from the Bible” (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pp.345-346.

God bless the USA!
