(24,703 posts)This a elected official with common core values who explains what and why and therefore, just like Sanders, and if the voter had been reminded of what the republican really did, and what they want to do, this election would have been a lot different and This is one reason why I am going to push to have her and Sanders on the ticket we need the Working Family Platform not oligarchy platforms

(57,936 posts)I can't see into the hearts of the Democratic Party leadership so I can't figure out for sure whether its members agree with Elizabeth Warren's values, but I do know one thing for sure: the Democratic leadership does not express Elizabeth Warren's values so that voters know where the Democratic Party stands.
Elizabeth Warren is just so right and she just expresses what I consider to be Democratic Party values so well.
If our Party follows Elizabeth Warren's lead with regard to stating our case for working families, middle-class families, we will win large majorities.
We can no longer just respond to Republican Party talking points. We need a government that works for middle-class working families and not just for the very rich. Get a government that works for middle-class working families, a government that cares about fairness and applying the law to everyone equally, the cheating banker as well as the shoplifter, a government that cares about fair trade, not just world trade, a government that cares about the environment and about peace and about education and Social Security and Medicare, the poor will be taken care of and everybody will prosper, not just the top 1%.
It isn't that what Elizabeth Warren says is such a strange idea. It is what the Democratic Party is really about. It's just that Elizabeth Warren focuse on it and expresses it better than the other Democrats.
There should be no dispute about this among Democrats. Elizabeth Warren is the spokesperson for Democratic values at this time.
