I LOVE Warren, but she's doing great where she is, for now. We need her there. If (Bill) Clinton and President Obama have taken major obstruction and hits from the Republicans, would it be any different for a woman? It might be worse---and now the Repugs are carrying on about age: as if late-sixties to early seventies is OLD in the present day. Reagan was not the best example of an "older" president. Every individual is not going to suffer from Alzheimers.
