Elizabeth Warren winning support for 2016 White House bid

[JDPriestly]

62. You cannot get elected if you know no one in D.C. or Boston or Chicago

or New York or Los Angeles or San Francisco, etc.

You have to have friends. But Elizabeth Warren is not sold out to that establishment. We don't know what she has to say about foreign policy or even a lot of domestic policy, but her common sense has not been wrung out of her on the compromise circuit of D.C.

Regardless of who she hob-nobbed with outside her university classroom over the course of her life, she has her feet on the ground.

Someone who is known to no-one in the Democratic Party hierarchy cannot get elected.

Elizabeth Warren has proved her ability to step on the toes of those who take advantage of their power and positions. When she speaks about things she cares about, her outrage and her emotional commitment are visible. That is not true of the usual party hacks.

On top of that, she is a brilliant woman with fire and energy. I really like her, as you can tell.

Hillary-- not so much. She has become just another politician with little rapport with ordinary people. She has had it too good too long. She started out with a lot of compassion, but I have seen quite the opposite in her since her White House years.

I saw a video encounter between Hillary and the Code Pink women that took place prior to the Iraq War. Hillary showed herself to be shockingly arrogant and dismissive of the Code Pink women who had actually gone to Iraq and warned that the War was ill advised and would cause terrible suffering. Hillary just raised her nose and huffed out. It revealed everything I needed to know about Hillary.

No thanks. Not Hillary.
