People are discussing how Romney being the Republican nominee for preident will expose Mormonism to the masses, but what about to the uneducated Mormons themselves? Many Mormons epecially younger Mormons under the age of 30 are not that aware of the church's racist past, or much at all about real Mormon history. It will be interesting to see how all of it coming out will shake their faith.
Many Mormons have wanted a Mormon in the spotlight like this for "missionary purposes," but I think it will backfire not just to nonmormons, but to young Mormons as well.
