There are always prophecies.
I'm not overly concerned about this as I know for a fact any attempt to turn the US into a Theocracy ran by the Mormons would end in bloody revolution. A HUGE portion of the country view the Church of Jesus Christ and the Latter Day Saints as an out and out cult. A nice friendly cult, but a cult all the same. There's zero chance the Catholics, Protestants, atheists, and agnostics of the nation would stand by and let a cult representing a small portion of the nation seize control.
I am more concerned about the true stories I've heard about the influence The Prophet has over his people. I'd like some distance between the President and unelected advisers. I'm a Christian, but when it comes to politics I'm very much a Cardinal Richelieu man. The State has its own morality, and as a leader you have to check your own morals at the door and do what's best for the nation.
I wouldn't be so sure that millions of fundamentalist Christian's wouldn't rise to support the takeover of our government so long as it's done in the name of God. I know and interact with literally hundreds of them on a regular basis and they REALLY are afraid that America is drifting into evil and that it's a result of some kind of un-Godly, liberal/humanist conspiracy.
