BuzzFeed’s McKay Coppins writes on the increasing openness of American polygamists, and on the ancestral polygamy of both President Obama and Mitt Romney. Coppins notes, “[T]he family trees of both [Romney and Obama] are rooted in polygamy, a practice that, for each candidate, has defined generations of family history.” Anne Wilde, a practicing polygamist and leading advocate for the legalization of “plural marriage,” says, “[Romney] thinks he needs to distance himself from polygamy, so he does. I just wonder what he really thinks.”
