    In terms of putting forward serious, far-reaching policies that would improve America, Elizabeth Warren is far ahead of anyone else running for president.https://twitter.com/jbouie/status/1105167939081326594 …

        I try not to comment on the horse-race stuff (because it's far too early), but I do think, based on the seriousness of her policies, Warren should be doing better than she has so far. I hope Democratic voters start noticing.

        The idea that someone can pretend to be Native American and not be seen as a laughingstock by people who agree with her politically is one of the many reasons why Trump is president.

        But she flunked her answer on whether it was immoral for our society to have billionaires. She’s very intelligent but without a solid understanding of how the ultra-rich control US and global politics she’s limited in what she can accomplish.

        President is two jobs head of government and head of state. If you run for head of government and people choose a head of state then 🤔

        I also think Booker is somewhat underrated on that point, unless you don't think his policies are serious. (Though, depending on how you define it, "serious" can get into horse-race territory, too.)

        Do you understand the difference between "breakup" and "do away with" Sounds like she's not the one off their meds. You can actually find out information about "breakups". See: Bell Telephone.
