Let's face it, if Elizabeth Warren had run, many of them wouldn't have been able to overcome their misogyny to support her, and especially not when she actually presented her strategies to achieve her plans. She wouldn't be pure enough for them, because those strategies would involve compromise. Only Bernie Sanders, who doesn't have any plans at all on how to achieve what he says he will is pure enough - precisely because he has no plans. They aren't interested in achieving anything - they are interested in being part of the selected elite.
