Benjamin Franklin said at the conclusion of the Constitutional convention in 1789, "This Republic, which we have given you with this constitution, will end in despotism, as other forms of government have done before it, when the people become so corrupt that they are incapable of any other form of government."

Marc,
You asked which 3 Presidents of the US did not get baptized by Wilford Woodruff in the St. George Temple. The answer is found on the last page of the book THE OTHER EMINENT MEN OF WILFORD WOODRUFF by Vicki Jo Anderson. It states, “all of the Presidents of the United States that were on my list except Buchanan, Van Buren & Grant…” I don’t know if this necessarily means that the Lord did not approve of these Presidents and the way in which they performed their earthly, missions, however.
