I don’t disagree. I do, however, disagree with their respective motives. One could be trusted with your life; the other not even on a good day with the most harmless of promises.

the emerging class of populist politicians

There is no moral equivalency between Warren and Cruz.To call Warren a populist is to fool people by hiding the fact that she promotes marxist exploitation theory in order not to help the masses but to gain personal power and increase the size and power of the state.

“”If big Wall Street banks want to gamble with their own money, so be it,” said Warren. “Let them take their risks with their own money, and let them live with the consequences of those risks. That is how markets are supposed to work.” “

I’ll take “Who is General Motors for 100, Alex.”

IMHO the electorate in 2016 will be clamoring for Crony Capitalist lobbyist/banker blood.

The Fake Indian is the only candidate currently positioned to take advantage of that. If the GOP is dense enough to nominate someone like Jeb Bush she will just waltz into the White House.

So, yes. Ted Cruz, please.

Warren’s a lying opportunist with all the right words. The last thing we need is another Obama...
