1. Yes, please get Obama to demand a recount
I think he'll ignore your request as clueless.
But really really make a big stink over it

2. more likely it will be Kucinich-which is why it's important for him to remain in the race.
Obama won't want to have the negative press associated with a recount, while Dennis fought for our votes in '04 and beyond!

4. yes, Obama won't fight is the key part of your post
Dennis might, but I don't know if he has any basis for a claim...and I have no idea with the NH recount requirements are.

Honestly I think there is no there, there.
I volunteered checking registration, votes, etc after 2004.

11. Obama won't challenge because even if he "wins," the outcome
(number of delegates awarded) remains the same. He and Hillary would still each get 9. In NH, delegates are awarded proportionally.

13. dennis did not fight
dennis did nothing. dennis issued a press release 10 days after the election. he was not a party to any recounts or lawsuits.

3. Why? Polls said he'd get mid 30s, he got 36%. The polls were spot on.

12. It won't change the delegate count
This is so irritating. It won't change the delegate count; they get the same number of delegates whether it's 39%/35% or 35%/31%. What in the hell is the point?

15. If something did happen and it was ignored, the republicans will...
have free access to steal another election. Who here wants that?
