My mind is made up. Elizabeth Warren. Sent a contribution yesterday


She is “a good and decent person”. Beyond that, she is brilliant, caring and energetic, and loves this country.

1. "Warren-Buttigieg"-- a consensus

I was with a few friends, ranging from quite moderate to pretty radical, and we were tasked with giving our "dream team."
I was amazed-- as different as the political leanings were, we all came up independently with... Warren/Buttigieg.

It will definitely be the highest cumulative IQ team!

I'll gladly vote for him if he's the candidate, or vote for him later.

There's only going to be one candidate in the fall who can claim presidential experience and that isn't worth a warm bucket of spit.

If there is something she doesn't know how to deal with, you can be damn sure she will suss it out, study it, and solicit the best advice (moral, legal, ethical, practical). She doesn't strike me as one of these "gut feeling" types.

11. Been thinking about the NA claim

and back then, in ‘86, pre-Internet all we had to go on were family verbal history and stories. Before the internet, you had to either go to Salt Lake or some local repository for records. Now, it’s easy with genealogy websites to verify things. Before I researched my tree, I heard all kinds of crazy family stories that weren’t based on fact. So I can see how it could happen. I’m sure Trump will keep using it, and call her names, but I think people understand her position.

I've been a Warren supporter for YEARS, waiting impatiently for her to run for president. But Buttigieg... SO impressive. I think 4 years as her VP would give him the experience in Federal government that he's lacking. He would soak it up like a sponge.
