Terry Branstad deliver the annual Condition of the State address before a joint session of the Iowa Legislature at the Statehouse in Des Moines, Iowa. Iowa was among the first states to legalize gay marriage and served as the liftoff site for President Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign, but in other arenas the state isn’t quite so progressive _ it’s also one of just two states to never elect a woman governor, senator or member of Congress.

FILE - In this March 26, 2013, file photo, a demonstrator holds a bible while marching outside the Supreme Court in Washington as the court heard arguments on California's voter approved ban on same-sex marriage, Proposition 8. Absent a magic potion or explosive economic growth, it was all but inevitable President Barack Obama would have to break some of his campaign promises to keep others, because of their incompatibility. Ten years ago, same-sex marriage was not legal anywhere in the United States. It's now allowed in nine states, with several more in the pipeline, yet many other states seem unlikely to follow suit unless forced to by Congress or the Supreme Court. It seems like a recipe for long-term conflict, but Obama and other Democratic Party leaders are now firmly ensconced in the ranks of gay-marriage supporters, and national opinion polls suggest that's now the prevailing view among the public.
