In reply to the discussion: Elizabeth Warren: I'm not running for president [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)I'm for her running.
I cannot think of a person on this earth other than my husband that I agree with on so many political issues. Right down to my admiration for Teddy Roosevelt as a president. I am not so fond of him as a killer of animals and people, but as a president in terms of the economy, he was the best. He laid the foundation for the reforms that FDR made.
In my opinion, there is no politician in America who could do what we need as a country if we are to keep existing -- and that what we need is to clean up our government, bust the trusts that once again dominate us and control our political agenda. She is right about everything. She and many of us are viewed as being on the left, but we are in fact more supportive of a truly market economy, an even playing field, no special favors and tax and subsidy deals for the big corporations and all the other good things that Elizabeth Warren is for and that make a vibrant capitalist economy that is healthy and prosperous for all possible.
I still support Elizabeth Warren for president. She is going to have to explain to me WHY she does not want to run. Because whatever her reason, there has to be a way to deal with it. America needs Elizabeth Warren in the White House. Only there can she appoint the cabinet and advisers who can get this country back on the right track and help us build a future. I also like Bernie Sanders. But I think Elizabeth Warren is the most electable of the two potential candidates.
Forget Hillary Clinton. She is the ally of the corporations who have corrupted our government to the point that it is alienated from the people.
