===Such accusations are ridiculous: Latter-day Saints have no secret plans to take over the U.S. Government===

The White Horse Prophecy has been used extensively by critics to imply that Latter-day Saints have a "secret agenda" to take over the United States government. These accusations have been made for years, particularly when a Latter-day Saint runs for president. 

Some of the accusations have even bordered on the ridiculous. Consider this bit of absurdity from William Schnoebelen:

<blockquote>
He told me that there was a council room up there [in the Washington Temple] which was an exact replica of the Oval Office of the White House. He told me they even had all the radio and telemetry equipment in place, hidden beneath a dome on top of the temple. He said that from this council room, the prophet could run the nation just as easily as he could from the White House itself. He also claimed that these electronic devices on the roof were so strong that airlines had to avoid flying right over the temple or their instruments might be thrown off.<ref>{{CriticalWork:Schnoebelen:Mitt Romney and the Mormon Plan}}</ref>
