9. She is a leader on issues

Bernie is my candidate but Warren has been an outspoken fearless speaker on the issues that matter so much. She has helped moved the conversation exactly where it is today. Like Bernie she doesn't poll test her opinions. She can speak off the cuff with mastery of the issues and has a fantastic ability to cut through the arguments of the oligarchs.

In my opinion, Joe was string and outspoken on Marriage equality and has always had the appearance of being for the working and middle class. I am not sure he has always acted in accordance with that appearance. HRC - I just don't get at all. She has been on the wrong side of so many votes that really mattered. She can't speak off the cuff and seems to duck a lot of questions. She is backed by the Oligarchs and I see only teeny tiny difference between her and Jebby. I also worry that that difference is in the appearance of being on our side only. I guess I just don't believe her, or Bill or any of them any more. Bernie and Warren are on the correct side of the issues - consistently. I trust her and I really trust Bernie.
