Alma 46 – 47
The largest group of supporters that Amalickiah had were lower judges. I can just see a political banner%u2014judges favor a return to monarchy. Perhaps that is the same thing that leads people with small-government conservative ideals to seek expanded government powers once they actully hold office (HB 150 & SB 277 this session) they are in a position to see what good is done with existing power and assume that expanded power will result in expanded good. Those who do not hold such positions tend to be much more skeptical%u2014and rightly so.
I’ll bet that Amalickiah stirred the Lamanites to anger by claiming that Moroninwasnraising an army in order to attack and conquer them.
