Warren For VP! Screw it, Hillary Clinton should definitely pick the Massachusetts senator...

[Demsrule86]

Going nuts because such face-to-face meetings in someone’s home during campaigns are frequently the harbingers of a running mate announcement. Warren is wildly popular amongst Democrats, especially those who put a priority on fighting income inequality and the shenanigans of Wall Street and other capitalist vultures who have done so much damage to our economy. Because of this, there’s been chatter for months about Warren as a potential running mate for Clinton, to shore up Clinton’s image as a true progressive and to keep these issues at the forefront of the campaign as Bernie Sanders does his fade-out.

But there’s also been a chorus of skeptics, and I’ve been one. Not because of any objection to Warren herself! On the contrary, I’m a massive Elizabeth Warren fangirl who pins gold stars and hearts to her picture that I have hanging over my bed.

1. I am fully on board. It would be awesome if she could have an economic role as VP.

[Demsrule86]

4. She would be great

And let's face it. Donald Trump doesn't like women...it would drive him crazy...and the gaffes would flow...like the mighty Mississippi.

2. Please add my name to her nomination

Time to take it to the Republicans in a Harry Truman way.

[Demsrule86]

5. Time to take the GOP to the wood shed!!!!

Trump is the worst candidate I have ever seen. I would crawl across broken glass to vote for Hillary Clinton.

3. Yes that is exactly what is needed polar opposites on Wall Street matters on the same ticket.

Warren's ability to foil Republicans where she is now in the Senate is too valuable. Warren may be the last true anti establishment, anti trade deal non one percent lobbyist sell out left in the Democratic Party.

[Demsrule86]

7. They are not opposites at all.

You all have misrepresented Hillary Clinton's positions. I want to win. I get that some Bernie supporters seem to think that losing the general is some sort of payback for the rest of us for not supporting Bernie or proves they were right, and we were wrong, but we simply can't lose this election...not with five court picks and the likelihood of the GOP having all three branches of government. Hell, there would be nothing left four years from now...voting rights, abortion right, LGBT, Healthcare... perhaps even nuclear war which Trump has said is on the table. Thus, if Warren helps us win, I am all for it...the senate would be pretty useless if it remains in GOP hands especially if they combine it with the courts, the House, and the presidency.

11. No misrepresentation of Hillary intended.

I seriously doubt Warren will ever be paid to make speeches to Wall Street to the tune of $20,000,000. On that aspect maybe alone Elizabeth and Hillary are polar.

I hold out some hope on Hillary's new religion on trade deals that appear to separate from President Obama.

[Demsrule86]

13. Never say never I would not have thought that Howard Dean would be involved in banking and lobbying.

I don't object to Hillary making money ...more power to her. I don't care about the speeches. I have never seen any indication she gives anything but a rousing speech for the money. Sitting Senator can't make paid speeches you know.

14. Always a few insider trades available.

6. Warren or Castro..either one would drive Trump crazy!

[Demsrule86]

8. I like Castro too

And he is a rock star... and he is young...the future of our party.

[TheCowsCameHome]

9. Not a chance.

Elizabeth Warren is far more valuable where she is.

[Bonhomme Richard]

10. It would be a big mistake. She is much more useful in the Senate than....

in the VP slot where she will be marginalized with zero influence. Of course that may be the plan just as the republicans did to T. Roosevelt.
Elizabeth is way too smart for that.

[gordianot]

12. Ding Ding Ding winner winner.

[Skid Rogue]

15. Elizabeth Warren is my pick.

8 years of Obama, 8 years of Hillary, then 8 years of Warren?????

This country would be a much different place.
