Today we announce the suspension of our campaign to draft Elizabeth Warren into the presidential race. There’s no sugar-coating it: We didn’t achieve our central goal. But there’s a bigger story that gives us tremendous hope: as one headline put it, “Elizabeth Warren may not be running, but she’s in the 2016 race anyway.”
In the six months since we launched the Run Warren Run effort, Senator Warren’s agenda and message have transformed the American political landscape. Echoing Warren’s famous adage that “the game is rigged,” Hillary Clinton declared in her campaign announcement that “the deck is still stacked in favor of those at the top.” Bernie Sanders emerged out of the gate as a far stronger contender than political bookmakers could have imagined just a few months ago. And Martin O’Malley launched his campaign on Saturday calling for the breaking up of big banks and jailing of Wall Street crooks. Even some Republicans are positioning themselves to run against inequality (although their proposals would exacerbate it).
To be sure, Warren—and grassroots economic populism more broadly—was already a rising force well before our efforts began. But look closely at the way the Run Warren Run effort unfolded, and you’ll see why, for us and for the 365,000 people who signed up, this campaign has already succeeded. Although Run Warren Run may not have sparked a candidacy, it ignited a movement.

So do these people write for Politico?
Shouldn’t Politico be doing something to indicate that they are merely giving a stage to an independent PAC unaffiliated with Poltico (in the headline that beams “WE”)?
I clicked on the “Run Warren Run” campaign site. Looks like it was run by MoveOn.Org. The same libtards behind the whole “Censure Clinton and Move On” movement. Clintonistas.
Bait and switch.
Yeah, it was MOVE.BORG behind the whole “Warren Movement”.
Astroturf
The only movement they ignited was a bowel movement.
Why don’t the Dems run Al Sharpton on the “F&^% the Police” platform. It’s working wonders in Baltimore.
Take the money and run part 2?
I figured she was running for President a year or so ago when she lined up Suze Orman on student loan forgiveness, making student loans bankruptable, etc and started touring together
There’s more money to be had working the system and insider trading in the senate than you can make as president.
