We are in a sad situation no doubt. The upcoming election feels like nothing more than a choice of the lesser of two evils. I'm a deeply patriotic person and am saddened by the status of things but at the same time it's all been prophesied, we just have to keep reminding ourselves the Lord is in charge.

I have always found it very interesting that when the Savoir established our current four year reding cycle of the scriptures that the Book of Mormon is studied in an election year. You can't tell me that the Savior doesn't know what will happen and how important the Book of Mormon, as a witness to His divinity, is for our survival.

Many are deceived by the actual horrors of the present Gadiantin robbers (elected officials) on the state and national level. May our hearts be opened, and our hands elect righteous leaders again nationally and locally here in Utah.

One of the most important axioms that we can uphold, is to in unity discard the deceitful discussion of left and right, and instead Focus on the foundational truth of right and wrong. And one absolute foundational pillar in the structure of America, is the Constitution of the United States, inspired and endorsed by God himself. President David O McKay had this to say: "Other than being one and worshiping God, there is nothing in this world upon which this church should be more united than in upholding and preserving the constitution of the of the United States."

This is a great synopsis of one of the many lessons of the Book of Mormon. Thank you for taking the time to research and write it.

The Book of Mormon speaks of ambitious men and political leaders who "stirred up unto anger" their people for the purpose of gaining power and influence, often resulting in war and conflict. (Alma 48:3;51:9;63:14.) Lamanite kings are not the only ones who employ such tactics. How I wish that we could all recognize that for what it is: knee-jerk politics, or at its worst, radicalization! "It is the wicked that stir up the hearts of the children of men unto bloodshed." Mormon 4:5 So: Don't vote Lamanite! Their leaders and pundits are forever using false (but alluring) traditions to stir up anger, resentment and distrust in their unwitting followers.
