In reply to the discussion: Elizabeth Warren Is Madder Than Hell [View all]dotymed
(5,610 posts)I have been burned too often by candidates that say what I want to hear. When they are elected it becomes obvious that they work for, or are a member of TPTB and could give a rats ass about we "common folk." When Senator Warren arrived on the political scene, an original Obama appointee, who was rejected by TPTB, I was skeptical even though Warren says what I think.
I have begun to trust her immensely while I still have a distrust of most politicians.
Senator Bernie Sanders has been the only one that I truly believe. He earned my trust by his progressive actions and hard work for the average and underprivileged Americans, consistently, over decades.
I have learned the hard way (as most of you have too) that words mean shit. Actions are the only things that count. While Senator Warren has only been in politics a comparatively short time. her actions have convinced me that she is on our side.
I hope that my decision never comes back to bite me, but she has made me start to trust that some politicians actually do care.
