(135,425 posts)If you want change on those issues, the thing to do is elect people who will sit in the place where LAWS ARE MADE. The Executive Branch does not have "power" over those things, save the power of veto. EW is exactly where she needs to be. She could use a few like-minded friends, in the Senate AND the House (where all appropriations are initiated).
I hate to tell you this, but I am not all that "rare." In fact, I'm the norm. I don't know a SOUL out here in the real world who doesn't adore both women, and who doesn't understand what they both bring to the table. They like OBAMA too.
And these not-so-rare folks, they contribute to campaigns, they precinct walk, they smile and dial for candidates, they GOTV, and they vote.
But Warren isn't running. She's said so, dozens of times, and she has promised her constituents she will finish out her term. She's not a "potential candidate." At least not in 2016.
