Senator Elizabeth Warren gave an interview to People magazine for this weeks issue and was asked for roughly the thousandth time if she planned to run for president. But her answer to this query was different than all the others:
But is the freshman senator from Massachusetts herself on board with a run for the White House? Warren wrinkles her nose.
I dont think so, she tells PEOPLE in an interview conducted at Warrens Cambridge, Massachusetts, home for this weeks issue. If theres any lesson Ive learned in the last five years, its dont be so sure about what lies ahead. There are amazing doors that could open.
She just doesnt see the door of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue being one of them. Not yet, anyway. Right now, Warren says, Im focused on figuring out what else I can do from this spot in the U.S. Senate.
As a veteran Warren-watcher, I can say with certainty this is more ambiguous than shes ever been on the subject. I dont think so, amazing doors that could open, and right now are the traditional vernacular of a someone flirting with a campaign-and someone who wants you to know it.

(1,596 posts)For her to pick up from where Obama left off would be the best case scenario - keep on fighting and doing good works under immense odds and pressure. Hillary, not so much -- would be more of the same of 2 steps forward and 3 steps back and hallelujah pass the cash, big boys.
