Once again, Elizabeth Warren shows Democrats how to talk Democrat. The funny thing is she makes it look so easy. She's pounding nails rebuilding what has historically been the platform of the Democratic Party. She has worked hard to gain an understanding of this topic and it shows. That hard work continues to benefit all of us.
Kudos to the Morning Joe panel and producers for allowing Senator Warren and Congressman Cummings the time to present their case with minimal interruptions. I thought the questions were very legitimate, not softballs, not gotchas. Joe did a particularly good job of holding his powder as Senator Warren went hard after his Republican Party. Mike Barnicle's question was very fair considering Republicans control both chambers of the Congress.
Here are some highlights:
Policy Choices
...(the) Middle Class is in trouble because of deliberate policy choices made in Washington. Than means we can make changes here in Washington.
We all know how horrible Republican policy choices have been for the middle class over the past 35 years. But as far as policy choices go, Democrats are not blameless. Going forward, we need to be the party of the New Deal, not the party of Nafta. The latter policy choices have taken the Democratic Party (and the Middle Class) to the brink of extinction. The former brought great prosperity to the Middle Class (and the Democratic Party).
Prospects for Passage
Barnicle asked:
What are the prospects for passage of legislation in the near future, not down the road, not four years, not five years. People might get frustrated and they might give up listening to your message.
Again, a very legit question considering the political landscape.
Athletes are known to go into the 'zone'. Think Montana, Jordan, Woods, ect. Elizabeth Warren entered her 'zone' at the 6:13 mark. Watch it. Then watch it again. This is how it is done. This is how it needs to be done by Democrats who want to be winning Democrats.
Ya know, the prospects are a whole lot better if you get out and fight for it.
she is the one who i think could do much better out of the WH too many restrictions and obstructions where she is now their is less bureaucracy and more of her message getting out. she is like a double threat quarterback hmmmm now that i think about it lie Pres. has become. she is formidable no doubt and puts the right on defense but like we know it takes more than two to make a gov't work and now we also see it takes more than a republican party to run one as well. God Bless her and her efforts regardless of what she pursues and rest assured it will be for we the people and country.
she also has implied i this text that we need not only remember but take action "YES WE CAN", that message was for both we the people and those charged with doing our will and keeping us safe and believe in the bill of rights "the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" think about it we have had none of that from republican in charge, just their efforts to control us for over 40 years.
