Would you like to see Elizabeth Warren run for President in 2016? [View all] MannyGoldstein Feb 2013 OP

I voted Other. CaliforniaPeggy Feb 2013 #1

Like Obama did? nt MannyGoldstein Feb 2013 #3

Obama was not the barn-burning Senator that Ms. Warren is. CaliforniaPeggy Feb 2013 #6

Obama was an Illinois State Senator for EIGHT YEARS before becoming a U.S. Senator. Tx4obama Feb 2013 #7

He was a constitutional law professor too, MannyGoldstein Feb 2013 #15

Regarding Warren there are MANY issues including her views re foreign policy we know nothing about Tx4obama Feb 2013 #18

Please name a major issue on which her views are not known. MannyGoldstein Feb 2013 #19

I gave you a link. Her record is thin and many issues there she has never stated her position on. Tx4obama Feb 2013 #20

Yes, that's a link. Can you name one? nt. MannyGoldstein Feb 2013 #21

Yes, I can, more than one actually. If you click on the link you will see quite a few of them :) Tx4obama Feb 2013 #22

That page is neither comprehensive nor authoritative. MannyGoldstein Feb 2013 #25

Hi Manny! tblue Feb 2013 #31

Warren's got a formidable weapon, too: MannyGoldstein Feb 2013 #33

Adulation for politicians is not healthy.l cali Feb 2013 #45

Eliz.Warren said EVERYTHING is on the table with Iran. EVERYTHING means EVERYTHING graham4anything Feb 2013 #54

I agree with you. Although I think she would be a good president. She needs to build southernyankeebelle Feb 2013 #52

No; too soon. elleng Feb 2013 #2

She has the right and a base of support to run, but i am with Hillary. hrmjustin Feb 2013 #4

Both of them are probably too old to run in 2016. JDPriestly Feb 2013 #43

Yes. Whisp Feb 2013 #5

I like her a lot but feel she'd need a stong VP at her side. But YES, I'd vote for her! n/t Fire Walk With Me Feb 2013 #8

Nope. We need her in the Senate. nt longship Feb 2013 #9

Ya know, why the fuck not? It's not like experience is really an issue, and at least Egalitarian Thug Feb 2013 #10

Sometimes you are more powerful as a Senator. Jennicut Feb 2013 #11

I guess some lawn in Connecticut has its gnome back now. Manifestor_of_Light Feb 2013 #32

Depends- do you want her to ruin her chances? brooklynite Feb 2013 #12

I want her to be in the perfect job she is in.Why would you want someone to replace her? graham4anything Feb 2013 #13

i think 2016 is too early, she would have to start campaigning early JI7 Feb 2013 #14

Not yet. nt EastKYLiberal Feb 2013 #16

No, I'd like her to do her job and smack the bankers. MrSlayer Feb 2013 #17

She appears to be better than the usual crop of 3rd Way candidates we get stuck with. Tierra_y_Libertad Feb 2013 #23

I'd love to see her run someday, but I think 2016 might be too early. winter is coming Feb 2013 #24

I want her to be a bulldog in the senate for a bit. nt Ed Suspicious Feb 2013 #26

This is a false choice. Firebrand Gary Feb 2013 #27

Executive Savior treestar Feb 2013 #55

Give her a chance to get settled. I think she might have a tough time if she tries to run. MADem Feb 2013 #28

If Elizabeth Warren WANTS to run for president in 2016, then go kick some ass Ma'am.... Rowdyboy Feb 2013 #29

Over Hillary. Nope. dkf Feb 2013 #30

What is it about Hillary that makes you feel this way? nt MannyGoldstein Feb 2013 #34

Hillary has seen it all and she knows how to play it. dkf Feb 2013 #39

agree 100% Laura PourMeADrink Feb 2013 #49

As it stands now, heck yes. DevonRex Feb 2013 #35

Sure, why not? Jamaal510 Feb 2013 #36

Yes. I would prefer her to Hillary. Hillary is a little too conservative for Cleita Feb 2013 #37

I voted yes but this is really premature. She is just really starting her role in official public CTyankee Feb 2013 #38

It takes time to develop support among colleagues No Vested Interest Feb 2013 #40

Being a Senator is very beneficial to her. tammywammy Feb 2013 #41

No RudynJack Feb 2013 #42

Doesn't really matter one way or another. Odds are, she won't. She ain't stupid. cali Feb 2013 #44

Contested primary, now why the hell would we do that davidpdx Feb 2013 #46

It's fine if she runs, but it's an undertaking I don't see her having the experience for cali Feb 2013 #47

I honestly don't think she will either davidpdx Feb 2013 #48

Struggled? MannyGoldstein Feb 2013 #56

I would have liked to see different choices for sure. Like No, Warren not Laura PourMeADrink Feb 2013 #50

I'd rather see her on the Supreme Court Mz Pip Feb 2013 #51

I really don't care at this point treestar Feb 2013 #53
