I like Senator Warren.
I'd like President Warren.
I'd LOVE Attorney General Warren.

Imagine having Elizabeth Warren in position to decide who gets investigated and prosecuted. A whole lot less pot growers getting their doors kicked in, and a whole lot of Wall Street executives getting theirs kicked in.

I think she's wonderful. Best new Senator on the Hill, IMO. By far. MADem Nov 2013 #1
Agreed. Nt stevenleser Nov 2013 #9
Can you share some specific issues that she hasn't been clear about MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #14
I provided a link. It details where she hasn't weighed in. MADem Nov 2013 #16
She's made statements on China and Syria, for example, MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #17
One comment is one comment, it's not enough--nor is it fair to her--to 'decide' what she MADem Nov 2013 #43

Fine. Go on, then. Après vous. nt MADem Nov 2013 #47
I like what she says libodem Nov 2013 #2
One reason I like her is because she is ferocious to the right people. Whisp Nov 2013 #3

Dont forget 8 yrs of Chelsea after Hillary! 7962 Nov 2013 #19
That is unlikely in the extreme, and I wouldn't support it at all. MADem Nov 2013 #42
HRC is a senior citizen blue14u Nov 2013 #38
Who is HLC? And the term would be "moot." MADem Nov 2013 #41
Ok, HRC and she is 66 years old. blue14u Nov 2013 #44
You can do the math as well as anyone else. MADem Nov 2013 #45
The thing is I blue14u Nov 2013 #50
Well, gird your loins, because you aren't going to get your wish. MADem Nov 2013 #51
I have not heard Hillary say she will run either. blue14u Nov 2013 #52
Apparently you're unfamiliar with the whole concept of a "roll out?" MADem Nov 2013 #54

I'm sorry but many tech workers like myself will NOT support those that want to TAKE AWAY their jobs cascadiance Nov 2013 #87

if "No means no" then Hillary or Obama wouldn't run... cascadiance Nov 2013 #100
Find me six examples of HRC saying NO. No-no-no-no. MADem Nov 2013 #103
Let them have their dream. Beacool Nov 2013 #53
I paid close attention to Warren's race, and did my (little) bit to help get her elected. MADem Nov 2013 #55
As I thought in 2008, I think that experience matters. Beacool Nov 2013 #66
Yes, you are right that experience does matter, which IS why Elizabeth Warren is best qualified! cascadiance Nov 2013 #70
She's an economist. Beacool Nov 2013 #72
Why do so many want term limits now? They DON'T LIKE the wrong kind of POLITICAL experience!! cascadiance Nov 2013 #78
Who are these "so many" of which you speak? MADem Nov 2013 #80
I think that a lot on the right want these in place... cascadiance Nov 2013 #84
The thing is, though, who writes the bills that become law? MADem Nov 2013 #86
I'm not saying that either GOP or Democratic Politicians want term limits! cascadiance Nov 2013 #88
Chris Christie can run as an "outsider" too. MADem Nov 2013 #93
I don't need old movies. I watched her campaign in MA. MADem Nov 2013 #77
Even Bernie Sanders is now "reconsidering" running for president after saying "no"... cascadiance Nov 2013 #83
That video I offered is pretty damned close to a Sherman statement. MADem Nov 2013 #89
Again you give NO issue reasons to support Hillary Clinton, just RATIONALIZED numbers... cascadiance Nov 2013 #91
You didn't once ASK for any "reasons." Don't move the goalposts and expect me to be cowed. MADem Nov 2013 #97
Bingo. MADem Nov 2013 #79
I like to read opinions of all sorts. Beacool Nov 2013 #81
Yep. We are the ten percent! MADem Nov 2013 #98
I see those sites (particularly Free Republic) as mirror images of this one. Beacool Nov 2013 #99
I think we've got a few more "reasonable" folks than they do. MADem Nov 2013 #101
That was very well said. Beacool Nov 2013 #104
Ha! Ain't that the truth! nt MADem Nov 2013 #106
Hillary also said she wouldnt run in 08, as do almost EVERYBODY when asked 7962 Nov 2013 #60
Go back and see how HRC phrased her non-denials, again. MADem Nov 2013 #85
True; so what do you think of what she said about '16? She has said "no" this time. 7962 Nov 2013 #94
Let's see the video link to that, in full context. MADem Nov 2013 #96
Agreed on all accounts, and I'll add one more. TekGryphon Nov 2013 #13
I somehow doubt a president Clinton would appoint Warren as AG but that would be interesting. n/t PoliticAverse Nov 2013 #26
I like Chair of the Federal Reserve Warren. nt MADem Nov 2013 #48
I agree. I think Hillary should put ALL her support behind a Warren presidential run. jtuck004 Nov 2013 #25
Warren doesn't need 3rd way centrist support. L0oniX Nov 2013 #28
And that might be the most enlightening thing that could happen. jtuck004 Nov 2013 #29
I would prefer that the Clintons have nothing to do to or for Warren. Whisp Nov 2013 #32
Yeah, I agree, but if you want all their Reagan Democrat buddies to vote, jtuck004 Nov 2013 #35

Head of the Federal Reserve? MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #15
Now there's an idea! 7962 Nov 2013 #20
Unlikely as she lacks the experience and economics background. n/t PoliticAverse Nov 2013 #27
Are you joking? wilsonbooks Nov 2013 #31
No. I'm aware of her background and I stand by my opionion that such an appointment is unlikely. n/t PoliticAverse Nov 2013 #49
Berkeley doesn't have SCHOLARS like Warren speak if they are "inexperienced"... cascadiance Nov 2013 #71
