(58,785 posts)that Warren endorsed Hillary "not entirely true"? It's entirely true.
And yes there are sources, statements from or attributed to Biden insiders, and I believe others. I'd heard a rumor when it happened and was thrilled to have it confirmed by staffers in interviews and whatever. Go find them if you want to check. The event was 2015, I'm not sure when the interviews etc. were. This doesn't fit the pack-media themes, so cable, etc., didn't run with it.
And Warren and Biden are on the same side of the issues. The Republicans and those they serve are on the other side. Their differences are in the details, usually the timetables and scope of action and the methods for achieving their common goals. All liberal Democrats, for instance, want universal healthcare and a healthy Social Security system that serves its recipients properly.
Btw, a common mistake is to be mislead by candidates' critical need to differentiate themselves from their fellow Democrats, and to make themselves sound much better, into thinking they're on "opposite" sides. Venal media push fake controversy to sell papers. It's easily avoided pretty permanently by informing ourselves about who the pols are, what they believe in, and their actual records of action. Once you know Biden has been a strong protector of SocSec and its recipients for 50 years, you can't be fooled by lies that he is not or on "opposite sides" with Warren.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
