Whether or not W. Mitt Romney finally decides to seek the U.S. Presidency in 2016, it is clear he will heavily influence the candidate chosen by the Republican Party.  R.B. (Ron) Scott provides the first and only independent (unauthorized) biographical profile of the  GOP nominee in 2012 and influential player in choosing a candidate for  the 2016  presidential election many knowledgeable observers say is "the Republicans to lose." Mitt Romney... takes a frank and revealing look at what makes the man tick, more human than he often appears to be on the stump: his character, convictions, his words and actions, yes his flips and his flops too, and, his triumphs and setbacks. It also attempts to answer the question everyone keeps asking: Could a faithful Mormon ever be elected President of the United States? Drawing on extensive research amassed over more than two decades, including interviews with people who know him best--allies and adversaries alike--this book paints a savvy, textured, and revealing portrait of the candidate, his history, family, religion, political beliefs, and strategy. It puts Mitt, his family, his history and  religion in context like no other book to date. - from Amzon
