The spotlight shines on an oft forgotten part of US territory this weekend when the tiny, remote Pacific island of Guam gets its chance to help make history in the US presidential campaign.
Guam, which has been a US territory since 1898, rarely steps into the limelight in US politics, lying on the other side of the international dateline and more than a 20-hour plane ride from Washington.

Obama will probably win by ten or more. Maybe even 60-40. But then each will get two delegates and the parade nowhere goes on.
I see that Ron Paul predicts a win for Obama in the fall! He also likes Obama onforeign policy. That is probably more meaningful tyhann Guam.
I also see that the dirty tricks of the Clintons' gopes on, and it is a repeat of the robocalls in other places. When caught, they smile and say, "honest error."
Honest error -- my hind leg!
Guam will help send HRC back to her home state of (take your pick) Ohio, Pennslyvania, Illinois, Indiana, Arkansas, New York, I wonder where Waldo is from this week. She's got more home states than Army brats.
Which "deadlocked battle" are these people talking about?
Guam will show the rest of the country, that it has been paying attention to the issues, and it's people want to move into the future with hope and optimism.
So if Hillary wins by 1%, it would be a HUGE and SIGNIFICANT shift in the election, right?
Right?? RIGHT??
You bet!
But if Obama wins...um, caucus state. Doesn't count.
If she says so, of course.
Guam, this is your moment. You may be small but you need to do your part. Four for Obama.
HOW MANY PPL DOES GUAM HAVE
Guam is a nice place. It's like a low-budget Hawaii.
I heard Obama opened a Campaign Office in Guam on Colbert Report! Anything less than 4-0 delegate sweep would be disappointing!
Yes We will!
Guam will be a game changer because it's the epicenter of Obamania
Even split.
Its a guarantee. To take even 3-1 would require 75/25 splits.
I think the winner of Guam will eventually be the Democrat nominee. You know the saying: "As Guam goes, so goes the nation!"
It may just happen.
Go Guam Go!
So we won't see more photos of Obama sunbathing?
Yes, and he'll be wearing a flag thong.
