May 2014

however I do not want her to run. As much as I like Big Bill, I really wouldn't want him back in the White House and Hillary is a bit too hawkish for me. The Castro brothers are great, but I think they need to hang on a few more years. I really like Elizabeth Warren however I would rather concentrate on the midterms at this point. We need to work on GOTV this time.
