This all comes from the “White Horse prophecy,” a bit of Mormon lore, where two devout followers, Edwin Rushton and Theodore Turley, apparently had a conversation with the prophet Joseph Smith. A “transcript” of Smith’s part of the conversation, 10-plus years later, ended up in Paradise, Utah’s John J. Robert’s private journal. I have to admit, growing up, I thought...

It's a call to the Elders of Israel. Idaho's gubernatorial candidate Rex Rammell exclusively invites Mormon men to a meeting where he'll discuss Joseph Smith's prophecies regarding the constitution. Critics say it's merely a way to use his faith to further his campaign. Rammell believes it's his duty to rally the troops, his fellow LDS elders who he claims responsible for saving the nation's constitution. But some say his Mormons-only invitation may end up hurting him when it's time to go to the polls.

REXBURG -- The LDS Church has issued a statement regarding the church's stance on Idaho gubernatorial candidate Rex Rammell's "elders only" meetings.
