I still don’t understand why you’re trying to make this a political expediency issue. Utah had 5 electoral votes during the Reagan years.

In 1980, 72.8 percent of the population voted for Reagan.
In 1984, 74.5 percent of the population voted for him.

Surely you can come up with a better reason to brush off Reagan’s praise of the LDS welfare system.

Dear, dear n00b,

You wrote, “Surely you can come up with a better reason to brush off Reagan’s praise of the LDS welfare system.”

I gave you the real reason. You (apparently) want so much for it to be a blanket endorsement of the false religion of mormonism, instead of some kind words on a campaign stop and an endorsement of community self-sufficiency.

Are you a mormon? Does that explain your desire?

They voted n a bloc against Carter because he had made the Mormons change their racist bigoted doctrines against blacks in 1978...
