DRAPER, Utah (ABC 4 News) - A body analyst expert sat down with ABC 4 to decipher Gov. Mitt Romney's body language as he accepted the Republican nomination for President of the United States.

Body analyst expert Kirk Duncan says the majority of communication is nonverbal and he has the keys to unlock the code to understanding the most subtle of body movements. 

He agreed to translate all those hidden messages most of us miss.  

First Duncan pointed out a subtle shoulder lift the moment Mr. Romney accepted the Republican nomination at the beginning of his speech.

"What it tells us is he's fully committed on the inside at the level that he's at and he's ready to move forward," said Duncan. 

Next we see Mr. Romney talk about his family.

"Unconditional love is a gift that Ann and I have tried to pass on to our sons and now to our grandchildren.  All the laws and legislation in the world will never heal this world like the loving hearts and arms of mothers and fathers.  If every child could drift to sleep feeling wrapped in the love of their family -- and God's love -- this world would be a far more gentle and better place," said Romney.

Duncan said, "In those moments you see him tilt his heard and his face gates very soft.  You can tell how he stands for the family is very true in what he's saying.  It shows his commitment level to the family."

Then Romney talked about President Obama's 2008 campaign promise to slow the rise of the oceans and heal the earth.

"Biting the lip tells us I have more to say about this, but not now and it also means what the other person said maybe they shouldn't have said that," said Duncan.

Romney went on to say his promise is to make life easier for families.

Kirk's final body language analysis is Mr. Romney is sincere, honest and has a high level of integrity.

"Watching the movements what he said in the movements.  I would follow that.  I would follow that leadership," said Duncan.

I would like to see a like analysis of mormon Harry Reid or even John Huntsman and obviously non-mormon Pres. Obama. For those critical of Duncan, he never professed to be a news man that should be unbiased in drawing a conclusion, but a person who sees what is being said by the body which is left out by the voice--how could you not draw conclusions about character with that ability?

Body analyst expert, maybe. Biased opinion, for sure. Kirk Duncan's contact address is Draper, Utah. Draper is in metro Salt Lake City. Do a search on him as a mormon and you'll plenty including the post saying he gave one of the finest LDS conference speeches - http://bit.ly/N65BjY His testimonials are LDS affiliated as well. Do you have to have a 'card' to prove you're an expert this field? If so, might be time for Mr. Duncan to turn his 'card' in.

If Mitt Romney is elected I can visualize his first White House press conference, as announced by his press secretary speaking in a quiet, hypnotic monotone: "We will now be pleased to hear from President Romney. Please arise, bow your heads and say 'Yes.' President Romney will now address us; President Romney. . . ." But for an unbiased, impartial documentary on Romney by John Sweeny of the BBC that was broadcast on 27 March 2012, see: "This World: The Mormon Candidate" on YouTube. LDS/Mormons, however, should be cautioned about watching this well-prepared and informative production or they might find themselves a target of the "Strengthening Church Members Committee" that Jeff Holland stumbled all over himself in by trying to convince Sweeny that it was only established "to investigate polygamists" when Sweeny had already conducted personal interviews with persons having actual experience to the contrary -- which hardly has anything to do with polygamists. But, of course, when Sweeny confronted him with the hard facts, Holland found himself on the hot seat and attempted to dodge the issue by claiming that he didn't know much about it because he wasn't part of that committee. (Give me a break!) If you wish to see some interesting "body language" portrayed by a sitting LDS Apostle when faced with some compelling issues by a skillful reporter from the BBC, you might wish to view this documentary. Perhaps Kirk Duncan should prepare a like analysis of Holland's "body language" during that interview to give us all some practical insight into one of the men whom Romney reveres to the point that he is wholly incapable of thinking critically about because of a life- time of LDS/Mormon indoctrination and it's purported "power of the holy priesthood," so-called. To me, Holland's demeanor and body language during that interview spoke volumes. God help us all if Romney should become "the most powerful man on earth," yet so subservient to his unsmiling LDS leaders.

Is there any doubt that a Romney administration would favor the rich and increase the income gap in our country? Mitt is a pariah in Mormon Clothing and will stop at nothing to expand an empire of greed for the rich in this country by expanding tax cuts for the 1% of the wealthiest Americans. He’s out to gut the Middle Class for every red cent he can get. Will his sacred Mormon underwear grant him the protection and money to buy this election? See for yourself as Mitt dons his tighty-whities sent down from the Good Lord Himself at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2012/05/mitt-romneys-magic-mormon-underwear.html
