Warren expected to launch 2020 bid with populist appeal

LAWRENCE, Mass. (AP) — Sen. Elizabeth Warren is expected to formally launch her presidential bid in this working-class city on Saturday with a populist call to fight economic inequality, a message she hopes will distinguish her in a crowded Democratic field and help her move past the controversy surrounding her past claims to Native American heritage.

The Massachusetts Democrat will announce her 2020 plans at a mill site where largely immigrant factory workers went on strike nearly 100 years ago, providing the longtime consumer advocate a fitting forum to advance her political platform. In a video announcing Saturday's event, Warren touted Lawrence's "history of working people coming together to make change, where the fight was hard, the battle was uphill, and where a group of women led the charge for all of us."

The 69-year-old will then head to New Hampshire, home to the nation's first primary, where Warren could have an advantage as a neighboring-state resident with high name recognition. She'll spend Sunday in Iowa, where the nation's leadoff caucuses will be the first test of the Democratic field's mettle.

Warren was the first high-profile Democrat to signal interest in running for the White House, forming an exploratory committee on New Year's Eve. Saturday's event likely makes her candidacy official.

She'll be introduced by Rep. Joe Kennedy III, a Massachusetts Democrat who will also endorse her candidacy, according to a source familiar with his plans. The backing could prove valuable for Warren given his status as a rising young Democratic star and his friendship with her potential 2020 rival, former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke.

She’ll have enough cash to run through the first four primary states. But this whole fake-Indian business won’t sell in Iowa, Nevada, or South Carolina. She might be able to draw a win out of NH. At that point, her cash flow is finished.

Once that bar association card got produced, that wrapped up the potential for her as Vice-President candidate material. Adding to this....someone is going to eventually find a connection to a scholarship for Indians in her background. At that point, she’s ‘toast’.

The recently released Texas document was meant to be a warning shot to Warren. The Democrat elites want her out of the race.

If she goes through with this announcement anyway, we can expect even bigger bombshells to drop.

I agree with your thoughts there.

She looks like someone’s old weak grandmother to me. No offense too old weak grandmothers, but she doesn’t look anything like what my mind’s eye sees as presidential material.

Liberal ‘ populist ‘ = brain dead lemming-like duffus

They should be entirely un-entitled to vote

Make voting a right that is accorded only to the that serve , or have served , in the Armed Forces and their dependents , those that actually pay income taxes , and to those that actually own property .
You have to pass a basic civics test , speak English , and be at least a 2nd generation migrant .

To all others , stand in line and enjoy the ride .

She’s announcing with a song. Her voice is a lot like the younger Cher’s.

“Half breed! How I wish I were!”

NO PERSON , who is not a United States native born citizen should be allowed to hold ANY elected office , State or Federal , within the United States .

‘Naturalization’ should NOT allow for the right to run for or hold elected office . That right should only open to the 2nd generation , native U.S. born children , of legally entered and naturalized immigrant /citizens .

Anyone that has ever been found guilty of illegal entry or overstay in the United States should be permanently banned from ever being granted naturalized U.S. citizen status .

Children born to illegal immigrants remain the citizenship of the parents who entered illegally and gave birth to them on U.S. soil .

Zero amnesty

It's actually kinda funny how self-unaware these people are, like she's going to get some high-powered makeover and people will magically forget what a miserable, tedious, lying retch of a human being she is, and just eat up the ‘transformation’ from a lowly worm (which she is) into a normal likable person.
