the white, jack-ass prophet. This was his destiny. Ascendant Mormonocracy under Mitt.
The radiant sun, in the form of golden tablets, was to rise each morning as Mitt and Ann rode across the skies in a chariot drawn by white, dressage horses.
This was supposed to be the new aged heralded by the Mayan soothsayers, an age of jet-suits and ice-cream franchises. An age when blonde boys on bicycles are accorded their due respect. An age when women, rightfully return to the kitchen to prepare green jello for family reunions. An age that demonstrates to the world that Mitt, himself, is Joseph Smith incarnate and that Mormonism is the one true faith.
People everywhere were to name their children Mitt and Tagg and Ann. Private car elevators were going to be the new sign of success. And Ann was to finally have had her turn. Her turn to be vindictive toward all those, who looked askance at her for "going Mormon for the money". She would be queen and show those socialites that she was not only richer than they but more powerful. She would make them bow.
Why would Mitt want this for himself or his family?
Becoming president was to validate everything in Mitt's world and it was to serve as validation of the Mormon faith.
What will he, or they, do now?
