I think Glenn Beck does think he is the fulfillment of the prophecy (just like Mitt and probably Reid), but while the LDS went whole hog to back Mitt, Beck and Reid won’t get as much support simply because they are converts while Mitt is “Mormon royalty” - pioneer stock who had an uncle who was next in line to be prophet when he died.

Mormons have this hierarchy based upon how ‘valiant’ you were as a spirit child in the ‘war in heaven’.

LDS Prophet = Very Very Valiant
LDS Pioneer/descendents = Very Valiant
Child of Converts born ‘in the covenant’ = valiant
convert = less valiant (and that kinda depends on the age you converted, if young enough to be married in temple and go on mission more valiant than later converts)
Blacks = fence sitters
