I am a huge fan of Elizabeth Warren, and have great respect for the position you are taking here.

The question remains: if Warren becomes the nominee, Trump will ask this question every five minutes. It will be the question that starts every Presidential debate.

I think Senator Warren simply needs to come up with an answer that is honest, powerful, and does not have the appearance of ducking the question.

What we saw last night probably struck most viewers as dodging the question. And that is never good... and certainly not for a candidate who is most powerful when she speaks clearly, forcefully, and from the heart on so many issues.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

Klobuchar was correct in calling out Warren's strawman about people protecting billionaires Otto Lidenbrock Oct 2019 #13
It is only a straw man Jakes Progress Oct 2019 #18
