What everybody is missing is the fact that Mormonism is a theocracy (just like a certain other false “religion” - remember, Joseph Smith referred to himself as a second Mohammed).
A theocracy is a system where the religious power and the civil power are one and the same and where the state is run by the clergy and religious law is applied. That certainly describes Mormonism, which would be even more overtly theocratic had it not been forced to back off and accept US law in order for Utah to become a state.
The last thing we need is another person in the White House or even on the campaign trial who doesn’t accept US law and believes that he is divinely ordained to “rule over” us.
