Pretty much everything you need to know about Mormonism (if you are thinking of joining) can be found in this episode:

And if you are serious about it, there is TONS of info about it. The baptist pastor was absolutely correct. Anyone who has actually STUDIED this religion would agree with him. Heck, I studied it in the late 1970's, thinking about becoming a member. But It's pretty clear to an "unaffiliated" person just how goofy the whole thing is. As with islam, it is completely made up by man, and losely based on the Bible.

It's a cult. And I have a serious problem with voting for a member of that cult for president.

But the issues here are —or ought be -What does the media gain by stirring up this divisive -non issue? Add to that the facts ignored by the Media (with few exceptionsi.e a newspaper in Seatle) #1 the Romney camp approached Bill Bennett for his support before the so called Values Voter Summit.#2 Pastor Jeffress mentioned ,Only from the podium
that his favored candidate Gov. Rick Perry is a Christian.
#3 when approached by reporters after Pastor Jeffress gave his personal opine. #4 Pastor Jeffress also made clear in that
meeting with reporters that he was not “close” to Gov. Perry; that he was expressing his opinion ,only;that gov. Perry might well disagree with him.#4 Clearly form the Seatle Paper—and from the Houston chronicle Romney intended to attack a Mr.Fischer from the podium— who is not a candidate-but a radio guy for American Family Association.Romney did attack Mr. Fischer following Bill
Bennetts speech attacking Pastor Jeffress ,(without mention of essential fact) And Romney also took a swipe at rick Perry in his same speech. Pastor Jeffress did Not violate Article VI of the Constitution in spirit or in law.(If one agrees with Joseph Story -A Familiar Exposition of the Constitution ,Regnery 1997 from the 1859 original -see also the 1833 Commentaries from which the school text was culled. I am aware of the Letter written to the Hebrew Congregation ( and others like it) I am also aware that George Washington issued General Orders to his Army , including one used by President Lincoln in Nov.1862 (that of 9 July 1776) that expressed the Generals hope and expectation that every Officer and man would so live as becomes a Christian soldier. ...” Other Orders issued reminded the distinguished Patriots to laud the more distinguished Character of Christian. Need I continue?
the great experiment of the so called church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints had not been invented by Joseph Smith
yet in Washingtons Day. But in Doctrines and in practices it manifests all the elements of a cult. It is unfortunate that the Media is now EXPLOITING the credible opinion of a Baptist Pastor... to advance the cause of the Democratic Party and their Beguiler in Chief?

It's a cult. And I have a serious problem with voting for a member of that cult for president.

To do so would help validate the cult in the eyes of the world and give a new talking point to the 50,000 Mormon "missionaries" all over the world. "Well, gee whiz, the President of the United States is a Mormon, it must be good".

Actually the South Park episode only has things that the LDS church missionaries admit to non members.

Once you get in you find stuff a lot crazier than what is in the episode. I’m not kidding.
