Some on DU are so insistent she will not run that they repeat it like a mantra. I don't know. Sounds like she isn't but they all say that. Clinton and Nush are the two candidates that have been "chosen" for us by the security/surveillance/war entrenched establishment. I remember when JFK Jr announced intentions to run after denying it for years and his plane went down a week later paving the way for the already decided Iraq War based on a stolen Bush presidency. When Sen. Paul Wellstone did the same thing post 911 indicating he would set a precedent voting against the Iraq War his plane went down. JFK Jr wouldve win on the women vote alone. Wellstone was in his way to the 2004 nomination as a democratic populist. The message is clear to me...if you want to rock the boat regarding foreign policy be very afraid. Wall St and War Contractors have spoken...they want Clinton vs Bush. Of course Warren WANTS to run...she just probably has some serious reservations about dirty tactics used against her or worse. There is too much money at stake and power to be gained by corporations who want to exploit us and they favor Clinton vs Bush.
