Elizabeth Warren ... peacekeeper between Hillary and Bernie
U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren blasted Donald Trump for his hate-filled attacks on her Native American heritage, disparaged his business record and labeled him a threat to America, previewing what one expert predicts will be her upcoming role as a peacekeeper between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.
I believe its very much in keeping her role as party unifier, said Erin OBrien, a political science professor at the University of Massachusetts Boston.
The real vitriol between Hillary Clinton supporters and Bernie Sanders supporters takes a back seat when someone both sides respect Elizabeth Warren says, Remember, the end game here is getting this guy (Trump) not elected.
Warren will be able to essentially name her speaking spot at the Democratic National Convention in July, when Sanders and his voters will be enlisted by the Clinton camp in a crusade against Trump if he prevails in his GOP bid.
I would place a lot of money on Elizabeth Warren making the party unifying speech, OBrien said. Shes going to be the come-to-Jesus moment.
