also Denmark has similar legislation to your country; you can't burn other country's flags because it's foreign policy.

i would love to see edwards and obama place first and second and hillary third. even though i'd rather see hillary as president than any of the republicans, both obama and edwards are much better candidates imo

Are the Iowa caucuses really that big of a deal? This is a real question. Is it really a good indicator of someone's chances of getting the nomination? I mean, we all know which candidates are going to be in the top for each party. Would beating Hilary Clinton by .5 percentage points really be that big of a deal?

edit: ok i already see he is ahead by more than .5 but still

Is there anywhere I can easily see all of the opponents' views in a summarized form? I've seen enough of Ron Paul, Barack, and Hilary, but I'd really want to see what the other candidates are saying without sifting through a load of shit.
