9. I love them both and I think either one would make a great president.

I think Hillary will be the nominee in 2016, and hopefully the next president. But every now and then the GOP finds a way to steal an election. So if that happens then I think we should nominate Elizabeth Warren in 2020.

I think what really matters here is that we are progressing as a nation, in terms of our willingness to consider women candidates. In addition to Hillary, other viable female candidates are Elizabeth Warren, Kirsten Gilibrand and Amy Klobuchar.
