Does the religion of a President really impact us?

Got me to thinking if the religion of a sitting President really impacts America much at all? Say since Eisenhower to today. George Jr. I think let more theology bleed into policy than most I recall, wiht limits on stem cell research and all.

Obama's impact seems totally secular. Thoughts if Romney were to get elected? How about how it may impact other religious organizations in the country? Anything? Unless I'm missing something (which is easy enough), I'm not seeing that the religion of a President really has much of any impact other than in election results.
