Elizabeth Warren knows exactly why the 2014 Election matters and student loans a big part

Elizabeth Warren was a guest on Real Time with Bill Maher a little over a week ago. She was actually the most substantive guest on the show but it got little attention because of the Islamophobic exchange that occurred between Bill Maher, Sam Harris, and Ben Affleck. The gravity of that exchange and the implications it had on an entire community needed to be justifiably challenged.

Bill Maher earlier on asked Elizabeth Warren why more Democrats do not speak like she does. Democrats do not provide the full throated populist positions that Elizabeth Warren has been articulating for some time. Her positions and her ability to articulate America’s economic ills and unfairness is the reason many think that she ultimately has a better chance of being the president the entire country could rally around.

2. Elizabeth is showing us how to articulate our values.

"Democrats believe that the U.S. government should not be making a profit off the backs of our kids, that that is fundamentally wrong when they're trying to get an education."

“This exploding debt is crushing our young people,”
“These students didn’t go to the mall and run up a bunch of charges on credit cards. They worked hard to learn new skills that will benefit this country. . . .They deserve our support, not an extra TAX for trying to get an education.”

This particular value, of course, is actually shared by most conservatives. Repeat it widely enough and the reminder will sift through...
