17. That would be cool
Is there some rule that all the ABC ladies interviewing people on the red carpet should wear a one shoulder dress?

13. James Franco is a really smart guy, but he won't.
The hosts won't say a word. I'd expect one of the award winners to drop the W word during his/her speech.
Who? I don't know.

15. Of course. Hollywood is full of liberals. It is almost de rigeur to do this at the Oscars.
I think plenty of nominees have a sentence or two in mind just in case but I don't think it will be over the top.

There needs to be someone, tho, who says it. And it needs to be an American.

We'll find out...my bet is that there will be at least one, and perhaps more...
