18. She has many times described exactly how she is going to pay for them. They will pass the same way

Obama passed the ACA -- Dem control of both houses and by whatever means necessary, even if that means not getting everything she wants. There is also the absolute nuclear option, i.e., getting rid of the filibuster in the Senate. (Hard to make a really strong argument for preserving it given the lengths to which the GOP has and will continue to go to achieve not only whatever they want but total and complete dominance. Better us than them. Abolish the filibuster and increase the SCOTUS to 15 if necessary.)

Elizabeth Warren has the will, the moxie and the skills to do what it takes to achieve progressive goals.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
