Clinton-Warren together: Is America ready for all-female ticket?
The Sacramento Bee ^ | June 27th, 2016 | By Anita Kumar

WASHINGTON -

As Hillary Clinton campaigned with Elizabeth Warren for the first time Monday, the joint appearance raised the question: Is America ready for two women on a presidential ticket?

Clinton is, of course, the first woman ever to clinch a major-party nomination for president. And she’s considering adding a second woman to the ticket, with Warren, a Democratic senator from Massachusetts, as a running mate.

“There is a wow factor to having two women on the ticket,” said Jim Hodges, a former governor of South Carolina and a Clinton ally who urged the campaign to select a woman. “It’s a change message, particularly in this climate.”

Clinton will pick a running mate before Democrats hold their national convention July 25-28 in Philadelphia.

Clinton and Warren appeared together at Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal, the kind of test run that presumptive nominees often use to measure face-to-face campaign chemistry as they narrow their choices. Clinton and Warren grasped hands in front of about 2,600 enthusiastic supporters.

“Hillary has brains, she has guts, she has thick skin and steady hands, but most of all she has a good heart, and that is what America needs and that is why I’m with her,” Warren told the crowd. “Are you with her?”

Clinton described Warren as a friend and a great leader, saying, “You just saw why she is considered so terrific, so formidable, because she tells it like it is.” Clinton herself said recently that the country probably was ready for two women on a ticket.

I think a lot of voters are sick and tired of being unable to criticize certain Politicians because they belong to a protected class....she will have many people voting against her on that basis alone.

If corrupt hillary takes Warren as VP its only because shes being forced too by the globalist money changers keeping her out of prison,

The hag queen doesn’t want another woman (except Muslim Brotherhood handler huma wiener) around sucking up her limelight, there isn’t that much there as it is,

I would look for a clinton tried and true triangulation maneuver toward an establishment ‘conservative’ choice for VP, a ‘unity’ ticket reaching across the aisle, trouble with that is anyone ‘republican’ that would run with her as already been outed as an obama loving sycophant, (i.e romney, mccain, bush spawn 2)

The enemies of our country would be very happy.
They know more about Hillary and Warren than the American people. Their intelligence agencies are working overtime to figure out who Hillary is and who Trump is.

I'm certainly ready for the demonicRats to propose a Hildebeeste/Fauxcahontas ticket.

I will have no trouble at all rejecting said ticket. I'm not concerned with their genital plumbing. I reject their support for abortion, communism, faggotry, gun-grabbing, tyranny, border insecurity, foreign tyrants, domestic tyranny ...

The Supremes! No kidding.

I'll go out on a limb, here, and say they were all three women.

Elizabeth Warren is a formidable Democrat candidate because she tells the left of the party exactly what it wants to hear. Which is not precisely the same as telling it like it is.

She beat Scott Brown, a Republican, by 3 points while Obama won by 25 points on the same ticket. She says the same canned speech over and over again. She can’t and won’t answer questions everything she says is rehearsed and scripted. She has no accomplishments what to speak of in the Senate. Even in academia she is a lightweight with her only relevant publishing is the “Two Income Trap” book which has nothing to do with law.

Warren, like Sanders, is a socialist clothed as a populist. We shouldn’t hope for Warren for the same reason I didn’t want Sanders as the candidate: Trump is also a populist and both Sanders and Warren are better at it than he is.

For us, Clinton’s best possible VP choice is a white man who’s a complete political insider, establishment, talking point based hack.

Does America care if it’s a man or woman? (Hillary is sexist!)

To me, Harridan Hillary Clunton(remove consonant at your own discretion) has only proved she is a female once in her entire life
