Hillary Clinton coming to Cincinnati Monday with Elizabeth Warren


Chrissie Thompson and Sharon Coolidge

8:59 a.m. EDT June 23, 2016

Hillary Clinton will campaign Monday in Cincinnati with progressive U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts – marking Clinton's first public appearance in Cincinnati this election cycle and her first campaign stop with Warren, a possible vice presidential pick.


...........

On Monday, Clinton and Warren will appear at 10:30 a.m. at the Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal. The two women "will discuss their shared commitment to building an America that is stronger together and an economy that works for everyone, not just those at the top," Clinton's campaign said in a statement. Tickets to the event are available at hillaryclinton.com/events.

Clinton and her supporters have touted Warren's endorsement as the former first lady seeks to unite Democrats after a long primary battle with U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont. Sanders' progressive ideas won support, and primaries, all over the country. But Clinton won more delegates in primaries and won the support of most of the party's superdelegates, emerging this month as the presumptive Democratic nominee.

Warren, a longtime progressive leader, waited until this month to endorse the former secretary of state over Sanders. She could help Clinton pull more Sanders supporters to her side...................

4. Too cool!

My Senator and My Candidate!

5. Clinton/Warren would be the "strength" ticket since Warren is demographically like Clinton

Much as Gore was like Clinton. Says to the world that the candidate at the top of the ticket feels secure. I love Castro, but I would be good with SOS for him.

10. This result has MASSIVE implications for the Democratic Party, that they need to heed.

I posted this on a Brexit thread but it's probably more relevant here :

British friends of mine, who are normally very middle of the road, told me that they were going to vote Leave. These are the type of people who detest what that racist bigot, Nigel Farage, stands for, yet they voted Leave in the full knowledge that they were on the same side as him. They had reached the point where they didn't care, they wanted change.

There is an appetite amongst the general populace of countries all over the world that they are sick of the status quo, and want this "change", whatever this change is.

I was warming to the notion of Tim Kaine on the VP ticket, but this result, where normally decent people sided with a racist bigot, should not be lost on the Democratic Party, where a similar racist bigot is already on 40% of the vote in America. People want something different, and I fear a Hillary ticket would be viewed as more of the same. This convinces me that Elizabeth Warren offers what Hillary has challenges on, ie Trust and being seen to do something different. People are less concerned with left/right as much who will change the status quo ? In my opinion, a Clinton/Warren ticket should now be at the top of the agenda.

11. I think Clinton is trying to get Warren to get to know her.

She knows that she's been vilified for decades, and Warren herself even had some terse words against Clinton in one of her books ("Two Income Trap" she claimed Clinton let bankruptcy reform down; in Fighting Chance Warren actually spoke favorably of Clinton and said Clinton thought it was "that awful bill&quot .

The more they work together and are in the same room together the more likely it is I think Clinton picks her. I think Clinton wants Warren to know she'll work hard to get shit done.

Clinton/Warren is looking more and more likely, imo.
