    Warren is a Harvard professor. She could not be more wonky and substantive. This is straight up sexism https://twitter.com/alanmcole/status/1109854396056326144 …

        "than the other candidates running" Umm, that would include men and woman. Where's the sexism again?

        Agree. Seeing this as sexist is a stretch. It is possible to opine about a diverse field of candidates w/o being sexist.

        Agree. This kind of MSM forced streamlining of Dem field needs to be called out. Thank you

        Caution - we can each praise our individual Dem favorite wo running down the others, or their followers. This only divides us. Both Elizabeth and Pete are highly intelligent, and any comparison should be against the "stable genius" in office now.

        I’m not praising my favorite or putting anyone down. I’m calling out gender bias

        i mean maybe, but it’s a complete nonsequitur that has nothing to do with the claims being made in the original tweet

        That's not a job requirement for POTUS. It's an excuse to favor a white male over more qualified candidates.

        You call her a towering intellect, but it’s not sexist to say that Pete is “head and shoulders smarter” than everyone including her? Based on what?
