Elizabeth Warren
Related: About this forumElizabeth Warren: When it counted most, Hillary sided with the vultures
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/09/05/elizabeth-warren-when-it-counted-most-hillary-sided-with-the-vultures/Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Moyers and Company host Bill Moyers sparred on Friday after Moyers replayed comments Warren made 10 years ago regarding Hillary Clinton and her policy shift on a bankruptcy bill that Warren opposed.
Isnt it time to get real ideologically? Moyers asked. The neoliberal movement of the last 30 years has run itself into the ground. And you know as well as I do, it still, nonetheless, has a hold on establishment Democrats. To be frank, Mrs. Clinton, for all the admiration and respect she commands for her years in public life, is the embodiment of that establishment, that movement. Do you think the neoliberal wing of the Democratic Party can put the country back on a path away from corporate and plutocratic control?
The way I see this is that we change as a people, Warren replied. The issues that face us are more visible than they were before the 2008 crash.\

(68,644 posts)5. Wouldn't it be great to be a delegate?
I have met a couple local Obama delegates, back in 2007.
It didn't seem extraordinary, though I'm probably not active enough.
Anyway, wouldn't it be great?
