starts out by saying they are not running for President when they are asked.

And it's not a lie to say you are not running for President and then later decide to run.

She has said she is not running for President. That is present tense. She has not said, "I will not run for President."

Personally, I'd be thrilled if she runs and she'd have my vote over Hillary in a heartbeat. If she doesn't, well then I'm thrilled to have her keep pushing on Wall St. and the 1%.

Well, Warren has been consistent, and insistent. longship Apr 2014 #14

You do yourself a great disfavor saying statements like this, rhett o rick Apr 2014 #16

Do you mean other than the fact that she has specifically dismissed such speculations? longship Apr 2014 #17
