LDS History
On January 29, 1844, the Prophet Joseph Smith formally decided to run for the office of president of the United States. It began in 1939. Joseph Smith left Nauvoo for Washington, D.C., with Sidney Rigdon, Elias Higbee, and Orrin Porter Rockwell in a two-horse carriage “to lay before the Congress of the United States, the grievances of the Saints while in Missouri.” Joseph and Judge Higbee met with President Martin Van Buren on November 29, 1839. Assasination ended the run for president as Joseph Smith was martyred on June 27, 1844.
