Some of the typical responses to Pres. Obama meeting with Church leaders.

Like, why would he meet with them?

Population of Utah - 2.943 million (2014)
Mormons in Utah - 1.764 million.
60% of the state follow these men as leaders.  Why wouldn't Obama meet with them?

 

Other people wanting to know why Pres. Monson wasn't there and speculating that he has dementia like Pres. Benson before him.

From the article:

 

"LDS Church spokesman Eric Hawkins said LDS President Thomas S. Monson, age 87, skipped a meeting with Obama to preserve his strength for the church's General Conference this weekend."

Yes, I realize that was in there.

People are just saying that it was a smokescreen to hide his dementia as has happened in the Church before.

Not saying I agree.  Just reporting the gossip.

I really like the guy. But afraid to say so around family and friends, such a chicken.

Your family and friends don't like President Monson, eh?

No comment.

 

Not going to state opinion of Obama, except maybe on my blog somewhere.  Ugh.

Not looking to get political.  More interested in his meeting with Church leaders than his politics.
