People seem to miss the exceptional difference available to the Oval Office for the first time in American History: Mitt Romney would be our first-ever JD/MBA. He knows from his MBA how to get things working and get things done.
Because he's also an attorney, he knows more than most how do things within the constraints of the law, how laws get interpreted, how to evaluate the legal scholarship of potential court appointees, and how to propose appropriate writing and enforcement of law as the Nation's Chief.
Hail to the JD/MBA Chief!

Is Mitt Romney a Conservative Christian? If so, is he the most electable?
There's a new poll on Americans' perceptions of the "Mormon" Faith--The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. The results stunningly underscore deeply held beliefs by many in America of what Count Leo Tolstoy once described--after his visit to the United States more than 100 years ago--as the then only "orginal" American religion.
How does the The Church of Jesus Christ(LDS) define itself? How might churches and their leaders from the earlier Christian traditions of America describe it?
These questions may have special relevence this week. The National Religious Broadcasters' Association is meeting, and consideration of Mitt Romney's candidacy will be a point of discussion. Here is a link: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17149388/

It's official--Mitt Matters! Does his Mormon faith?
Today Mitt officially announced his candidacy for President of the United States.
"Why should I care?" you ask?
Think about it:
Which of the candidates can we trust--over every other candidate--with OUR collective priorities? How would we really know without making the effort to become truly informed?
Why is Mitt the most trustworthy of presidential contenders in a very crowded field?
Simple. Trustworthiness is the result of:
1. competency
2. commitment, and
3. character.
Mitt Romney demonstrates more of each of these virtues than any other candidate. All three are especially necessary given the uncertainties we are all facing.
What is our greatest current and future need--our priority--as a people?
Creative, comprehensive and collaborative decision-making resulting in:
1. Greater security, responsibility and peace for the U.S. and global citizenry.
2. Widespread liberty, opportunity and prosperity for the U.S. and global economy.
3. Effective leadership, management and change for the U.S. and global community.
To substantially diminish our national and global capabilty to succeed by not electing the candidate most able to leverage the synergy between ALL THREE of these outcomes would be egregious irresponsibility.
To not elect Mitt Romney because of ignorance, misunderstanding or intolerance of his religious faith would be self-defeating bigotry.
In the coming weeks and months this blog will both spell out the self-evident trustworthiness of Mitt Romney and dispel the misunderstandings of his Mormon faith.
