I have to take Obama at his word. He professes to be a Christian,
although he doesn't "seem" to act like one. My guess would be that
his religion is Liberalism, which competes with both Christianity
and Mormonism.

You do realize that Mormons are not Christians, don't you?
Not that it is a bad thing to be a Mormon.
For instance:
Christians are monotheists
Mormons are polytheists
Christians can not become Gods. The God (singular) of the
Christians has no brothers, aunts, uncles, sisters ...
Christians are not given to marriage in heaven (Jesus own words)
Mormons have families in heaven
In Christianity, Jesus was born of a virgin. No sexual act.
By the way, your conception story, which I will not repeat here
is rather insulting/vulgar to us. Don't worry, we get past it.
In Christianity, Saint Mary Magdalen holds the title "Equal
to the Apostles" for her evangelism. We would not have such
elaborate detail on her if she had gone to the new world.
Check out our account of here standing in front the the Roman
emperor and declaring "Christ is Risen!" with an white egg
in her hand.
The problem with Mormonism and Christianity is that the
Mormons decided to use the same names that the Christians
use. Mormonism is an entirely different religion. And,
not a bad one at that (except for the drinking).
As I have said, Mormons show us Christians up all the time.
Being a Mormon is not a bad thing. In the end, I do believe
it is how you treat others that matters. Jesus (of the
Christians) will honor that. (So, you are not going to hell
if you follow the commandments and treat others well, regardless
of what religion you are.)
I chose the Christian path over the Mormon path. If you
really do believe you are a Christian, check us out. Here is
a web site for the original, ancient church that Jesus himself
founded, which is still in existence and thriving:

Or stay a Mormon and do good works as one. It will
be honored.

He doesn't seem to act like a Liberal. He seems to have
the missing fire in his belly lately that we all were
missing. (There were time is his past that he could
put a chair to sleep.)
