Win or lose, I'm TOTALLY GLAD that Warren is in the race.

Sanders did the initial ground breaking, but Warren has made "big change" a real threat. The pundits are talking and the big corporations are scared. The public is getting educated to the idea that "big change" is possible, and absolutely necessary. Maybe Warren won't win this time, and if she does, maybe (probably) she won't get big change through congress. But the next time or the next time it will be something people are used to, and demanding.

THANKS, Elizabeth!!!!!!!

If I were to vote in a presidential

We all want "big change". We only differ in how to get there. Having such a wide-ranging show of political talent in the primaries is really encouraging.
