Heads of states, received security reports, negotiated with leaders of other countries. She served in the Senate for eight years.

You can read about her stand on the issues from the following link:

Time to retire the Warren used to be a Republican line. Do you know what Hillary used to be?

Focus on current issues. What are each championing right now? Well, Warren is pulling any punches. Hillary's behaving like she's wishing Warren away. As a result, Hillary is going to be Candidate Etch-a-scetch.

Democrat. Talk about retiring the Hillary was a Republican, since she never registered as a Republican we can't retire something which never was. Also since Hillary co-sponsored bills to raise the minimum wage before Warren was elected to the Senate we can say Warren has followed Hillary on the issues. This argument about Hillary wishing Warren away, why, Warren has already signed up to back Hillary, a candidate does not want to get rid of their supporters. I know several would like to see Warren run, she has been consistent on saying no. Why are you trying to get Warren and Hillary into a contest, your argument is full of air.

Nor, to my knowledge, was she ever on Walmart's Board of Directors.

How about Hillary?

walmart was a whole different company than it is now. I mean they used to be proud of the fact they mostly sold made in the USA products. Friend of mine has a picture taken in the first walmart parking lot that was built around here back in the late 70s and there is walmarts sign in the back ground saying what I just said. I could have bought shares for 50 cents a share when we were doing the concrete on that parking lot. A months worth of wages would have made me a rich man today.

Front row seat. Hillary will do all she can to silence Warren. Hopefully, Elizabeth doesn't take a useless Clinton cabinet position.

They have respect for each other and a President Clinton knows the abilities of a strong Senator. I don't see the "fight" between Hillary and Warren though it sounds like others would love to see this. They are both liberal and are rated in the same place on the chart. This sounds like a of hoping for a fight and it isn't going to happen.

There are other issues such as climate change and race relations and foreign policy.

Many white liberal males focus on a single issue, but there's more to governing than focusing on banks.

Warren focuses on the single issue white liberals care about most.

White liberals don't have to worry about crooked racist cops.
