Elizabeth Warren Wants To Battle!

Elizabeth Warren is running for president.

Massachusetts senator is forming a presidential exploratory committee. She would make the first top-tier candidate to be considering a run for the President of the United States. She could be one of the dozens of candidates who want to take on an imbecile who has a 75% chance of winning reelection.

The far-right and Donald J. Trump are ready to pounce on her. They are already playing upon the racism and sexism that helped Trump win the White House.

Trump is LIKELY going to win reelection. But we're almost one year and 11 months away from the next general election. What could happened in 2020?

Already Fox News and Trump have launched their preemptive attacks.

Pete Hegseth: Elizabeth Warren "says she’s in the fight all the way Mr. President, do you really think she believes she can win?"

Elizabeth Warren, the Democratic senator from Massachusetts is a progressive and firebrand.

But is Warren battle ready?

Do you think Elizabeth Warren ready to be president?

Code:

Yes. I believe that Elizabeth Warren is ready to take on Donald Trump. Her message of progressive economics has caught my attention. She will do fine.

No. I believe that Elizabeth Warren is not ready for primetime. She is too polarizing. The Native American heritage controversy will be the anchor that sinks her bid for president.

I have no comment on Elizabeth Warren. I want to know all the facts before I make a decision on whether to support or denounce her.

I would like to see more diverse candidates in the race for the Democratic nomination for President of The United States.

Warren made the announcement today in an email to her supporters accompanied by a video laying out the case to run for president.

he problem isn’t caused by some indisputable law of physics, like gravity. The problem isn’t that people aren’t willing to work hard. The problem starts in Washington. Our government has been bought and paid for by a bunch of billionaires and giant corporations that think they get to dictate the rules that affect everyone. Tax loopholes. Prescription drug pricing. Financial rules. Environmental protection. These companies define policies that are great for their bottom line, while good, honest people who work hard get squeezed harder every year. It’s corruption, pure and simple.

That’s not how government is supposed to work. You know it. I know it. And we know it is time to fight back.

I’m forever grateful that I got a chance to go to college for $50 a semester, a chance that opened a million doors for me. I’m grateful, and I’m determined. That’s why I fight my heart out so that everyone gets a real chance in life, a chance to build something solid, a chance to create their piece of the American dream.

CBS reports Warren's new exploratory committee allows her to start raising money, hire staff and travel to early primary states. It also makes her the first U.S. senator and first woman to take official steps toward a 2020 campaign that could eventually include nearly two dozen contenders. At least seven other senators, current and former mayors, governors, cabinet secretaries and former vice president Joe Biden are considering bids.

The 69-year-old just won her second Senate term in November. She represents Massachusetts, but was born and raised in Oklahoma. Warren taught at law schools in New Jersey, Texas and Pennsylvania before ending up at Harvard University.

With a background in bankruptcy and commercial law, she pushed for the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in response to the 2008 economic collapse. In the Senate, she's been a fierce critic of top corporate executives.

In the Senate, Warren has gained national attention in Senate Banking Committee hearings for going after bank executives and government officials who are supposed to be overseeing them.

In September, Warren revealed a DNA test had found she has Native American ancestors. But the Cherokee Nation tribe denounced her move as "inappropriate and wrong." On Monday, she defended her decision.

"I have put it all out there," she said.

Warren took the test partly in response to attacks by President Trump, who often mocks her.

With 673 days to go until Election Day, other contenders are spending the final hours of 2018 talking it over with their families and interviewing potential staffers. More announcements are expected shortly after the new year.

Warren is married to Harvard law professor Bruce H. Mann. She was previously married to Jim Warren, a high school sweetheart. She has two children named Amelia and Alexander from her marriage to her previous husband.
