We’re long overdue for a female president, and Elizabeth Warren is the ideal candidate: a teacher, a listener, a comforter, a defender, an innovator, a tireless worker, and probably the sharpest mind presently in American politics. (1)
It’s disappointing, and quite frankly scary, that more Americans, especially those of us that call ourselves progressives, weren’t able to recognize or acknowledge what a uniquely capable candidate we had. (2)
The silver lining is that @ewarren’s selfless dedication to progressivism (and extraordinary attention to detail) means that her plans to rectify the current disaster are readily available, even if she won’t be the one signing the bills into law (3)
Exciting @ewarren Town Hall in Arlington! We know 98% of the delegates are still up for grabs, and it’s great to hear from her tonight as we head towards Nevada, South Carolina, Super Tuesday, and Michigan! #LFG
“Good news: I have the biggest anti-corruption plan since Watergate.
Bad news: We need it!”
@ewarren’s message on corruption cuts through every problem we face.

.@ewarren so eloquently captures America’s history of being at our best when we see a big problem and we fight back. This is no time for small ideas. #DreamBigFightHard

1️⃣ FUNDING SCHOOLS ADEQUATELY AND EQUITABLY
State & local funds make up about 90% of total K-12 ed. funding. The federal gov’t provides roughly the remaining 10%, primarily through Title I — @ewarren’s plan starts by quadrupling Title I funding.

1/ The Iowa caucuses are just over a month away (February 3), and a whole host of outcomes seem possible. Ballots for the California primary (March 3) also become available that day.
I’ll be voting for @ewarren. Here’s why in a nutshell (A THREAD):

2/ Warren has correctly diagnosed the problems we face as resulting from an insufficiently regulated, thoroughly corrupted, socially debilitating political economic system.
3/ She has named the problem for what it is, and has a plan—or, more accurately, dozens and dozens of thoughtful, bold, integrated plans—to fix it.
Lots of doors were knocked today. Lots of insightful tears were shed today. A few hugs too. Here is a thread of some amazing experiences while meeting voters today:
1. I spoke with a woman whose 6-yr old daughter just got diagnosed with diabetes. Her hospital bill for 24 hours was $75k. She said, “Thank God we had insurance.” She started crying. “What about the other girls out there whose parents can’t afford it?”
1. (cont) “Even if we can afford the insurance, we’re paying out of pocket for so many different parts of the plan and it’s getting expensive. It makes no sense. We need a single system that works fairly.”
