The VP slot is not a partisan role. The VP, just as the president, is there to serve the whole country, not just those who want to blow up Wall St. As the VP, Elizabeth Warren would be muzzled, and far less effective than she is as a prominent progressive voice in the Senate.

I know. This continued insistence that there's some huge chasm between the two is ridiculous. TwilightZone Jun 2016 #14

Elizabeth Warren should make her own decisions about her career Maru Kitteh Jun 2016 #8
