Mormon Mitt Romney Returning to the Private Sector?
Mitt Romney, former U.S. presidential candidate (2012) and member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (often mistakenly called the Mormon Church), is reportedly “returning to the private sector.” [1] This headline hit the news near mid-March 2013 after Romney offered his first interviews since losing the election.

Mitt Romney (Mormon), is a Harvard-educated man marked by a distinguished business career in the private sector and tenure as influential public servant and political leader, who made a momentous decision to run for the office of President of the United States. Mitt comes to the global stage tenaciously. Romney has received a great deal of media attention--and, in fact, undue criticism--for his deeply-held Christian religious beliefs, raised in the context of his candidacy for national office. He is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, frequently misnamed the "Mormon Church." Its constituents, Latter-day Saints, are often nicknamed "Mormons"--hence, the media's simplified references to "Mitt Romney, Mormon," or "Mitt's Mormonism."
