Senator Elizabeth Warren: YES

On MSNBC, when asked by Rachel Maddow if Warren was ready to assume the duties of the Presidency if something happened to a PHRC, her answer was a simple, firm, YES.

Maddow goes on during the Lawrence O'Donnell show to explain that Warren was enthusiastic and honest, unreserved in her endorsement and praise of Hillary Clinton.

Don't tell me VP's don't have power.

Last four were GHW Bush, Gore, Cheney, Biden.

Warren could be the best of them all!
