I think the Mormon Church should baptize ancestors of Barack and Michelle Obama and Joe and Jill Biden.
Can they do that? When those people were alive they couldn't have been Mormen because of their race. Is the admission of blacks retro-active? (I suppose some of Barack's ancestors were white).
Of course it is retroactive. The LDS just misinterpreted God's design for about 130 years until God gave the senior elder the word. Everybody makes mistakes you know. To err is human, to forgive divine.
and I think blacks could in theory if not necessarily always in practice have been Mormons, just not advance into the clergy.
