I have Go Launcher EX and Rotating Wallpaper on mine along with tons of unauthorized apps and widgets. 
Would I need to uninstall all of that in order to root. 
The main thing I want is to use my own wallpaper and use Go Launcher EX without fear.      Can I do that after rooting without the Rotating Wallpaper app?

 I left everything installed, ran the utility, rooted the device, installed fire fire fire, and then installed Google apps.  I can't say it enough times.  It's really not as bad or as difficult as some people will make you believe.  In fact, it's really only modifying a small chunk of code.  My fire runs just like everyone else's.
Unrooted kindles crash just like rooted ones.
