But if you *had* to do it, who would you pick. My point is that Mr. Uchtdorf is romantic for many followers. He is not from the same mold as the others. He also has that sort of debbinaire look.
This, I believe, is why people listen so intently to him.
Remember, you don't become an Apostle by going against grain. In the end, Dieter is just a polished version of Packer.
If I was forced to choose, I'd pick...Oaks. I don't like that dick's stance on the gays, and Packer is too easy a target. So I'd spend all of dinner peppering him with questions.

You could pepper him with kisses, too. Just a thought.

Why don't you kiss him? Just a thought!
