2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumElizabeth Warren: "I meant what I said"
I meant what I said.
I stood before a group of voters in Massachusetts last year and talked about what it would take to move forward as a nation. I laid out how we all needed to invest in our country, to build a strong foundation for our families today and make sure the next kid with the great idea has the chance to succeed.
But too often that kid cant succeed because the system is rigged against him.
Small-business owners bust their tails every day. Theyre the first ones in and the last to leave, six and often seven days a week. Thats how my Aunt Alice ran her small restaurant, where I worked as a kid. My brother and my daughter both started small businesses. And Ive visited and talked with small-business owners across Massachusetts. From the insurance agency in Brockton to the coffee shop in Greenfield and the manufacturing plant in Lawrence all started and run by people with good ideas and a determination to succeed.

I believe that she's become the de facto leader of the FDR wing of our party.
