gun control: A night before, the Massachusetts senator enjoyed similar treatment when Democrats at a party dinner jumped to their feet some beginning to dance at the opening bars of Dolly Parton's 9 to 5, the song that would usher Warren on stage. ; For someone whose White House ambitions were dismissed by some Democrats earlier this year after a shaky campaign launch, Warren's reception in Iowa this weekend was a clear warning sign to other candidates that hers is a campaign to be reckoned with in the state that kicks off the race for the party's nomination, according to The Japan Times. Warren was one of nearly two dozen candidates who paraded through Iowa this weekend, speaking at the state fair, the annual Wing Ding dinner and a forum on gun control. Elizabeth Warren, basking in the spontaneous adulation of her proposed wealth tax, prompted roars as she called on the ultra-wealthy to pitch in 2 cents so everybody gets a chance to make it. The sheer volume of presidential contenders signaled a new phase of the campaign, ending the get-to-know-you period and beginning a six-month sprint to the Iowa caucuses. They'll be competing for the support of Democrats who say repeatedly that, despite their differences, their top priority is landing on a nominee who can defeat President Donald Trump. In that time, the historically large field will winnow, front-runner Joe Biden will be tested more forcefully and a fierce competition will unfold for candidates to be seen as the more viable alternative.
