Related: About this forumElizabeth Warren declares herself ready to be Hillary Clinton's running mate
http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jun/09/elizabeth-warren-endorses-hillary-clinton-running-mateSenator Elizabeth Warren has declared herself ready to be Hillary Clintons running mate in the US presidential election.
The Massachusetts senator popular among the progressive wing of the Democratic party made the declaration shortly after endorsing Clinton, calling her a fighter with guts who would keep Donald Trump out the White House.
In an interview on MSNBC, Warren was asked by Rachel Maddow: If you were asked to be Secretary Clintons running mate, do you believe you could do it?
Her response was concise: Yes, I do.

Her response was concise: Yes, I do.
Speaking to MSNBCs Rachel Maddow on Thursday evening, Warren said the Sanders campaign had been powerfully important.
He ran a campaign from the heart, and he ran a campaign where he took these issues and really thrust them into the spotlight issues that are near and dear to my heart and he brought millions of people into the democratic process, she said.
But, Warren said, Hillary Clinton won. And she won because shes a fighter, shes out there, shes tough. And I think this is what we need.

Bill: "WTF are you doing calling me over and over? I told you when Ivana divorced you, I can't explain why Hillary stayed with me, but it helps that we're best friends too. I can't help you if Melenia's about to leave you because she saw you with a new mistress."
Donald: "... no, no, that's not it."
Bill: "So, what? Referral for a new hairdresser?"
Donald: "No. I'm thinking about running for President "
Bill: (holding back hysterical laughter) "Bless your heart, Donnie. Heh. Uh, sure, you go ahead and do that. Now I, I've gotta.... (laughter starting) gotta go." (Hangs up, laughing)
Donald: "Cool, he endorsed me!"
