Why Elizabeth Warren Won't Run

Jill Lawrence “Being president, or even just running for president, would dilute what the left loves best about Warren and also, perhaps, what the nation needs most from her. Being speculated about as a candidate for president, on the other hand, sometimes can be useful. Back in 1991, Sen. Jay Rockefeller of West Virginia told me he did not discourage speculation about a run for president because he was thrilled by the attention it generated for his ideas on health policy. So it is with Warren. She remains vastly influential as long as she retains her unique role in the national conversation. But if she actually were to run, all that would change. And her record so far suggests she knows it.”

1. I agree she is very powerful right now. I'd hate to see her dilute her fire the

way Presidential Candidates have to.

4. Hey, I got a deal for you, I will send Ted Cruz and Louis Gohmert for Warren, two

For the price of one.

7. Lol!

8. I could throw in Perry and a washed up used president who paints by numbers.

3. She is very good in her field of expertise and does a good job.

Ted Kennedy had really big shoes for someone to fill and having Senator Warren has brought back some of the glitter. Kennedy was very liberal in his position, pushed for health care for so many years, it is unfortunate he was not here to see ACA implemented. She is in a very beneficial position and can serve a long time.

5. Yes. She adds depth and reawakens liberals in the USA. I'd love to see her as

president. But I'd also love it if she was a senator for 20 years.

6. There you go, 20 years of service in the Senate would be good, she will do well.
