LDS Caucus thread. Please respect the designation.

Today's post further explores statements by Ezra Taft Benson, 13th President the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. President Benson, who served in Eisenhower's cabinet for the full 8 years, (the only cabinet member to do so), simultaneous to his service as an Apostle for the Church, was there in a pivotal time for our country. President Benson was an outspoken critic of Communism and Socialism.

He was both a prophet and a statesman, and IMO was there by no coincidence.

We pay lip service to the principles embodied in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution without realizing what they are and the danger of ignoring them.

When was the last time a judge referred to the Declaration?

How often in recent memory have Scotus judges referred to foreign law?

There is no hope for our republic if we do not change course. Soon.
