Elizabeth Warren praises Bernie Sanders’ prez bid [View all]

This OP will be linked to in the Sanders Group.

Warning: the Boston Herald leans heavily right. However, I don't think it's sleazy enough to doctor a video of Warren speaking; and the story includes such a video.

Bay State U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren welcomed fellow liberal from the north, Vermont U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, into the presidential sweepstakes yesterday, even as she continues to resist efforts to draft her into the race.

“I’m glad to see him get out there and give his version of what leadership in this country should be,” Warren said while at Middlesex Community College in Lowell yesterday. “I think that Bernie Sanders is going to play out a vision for America and that it is important for people to hear what he has to say.”

Warren has repeatedly said she will not run for president, despite a nationwide campaign urging her to throw her hat in the ring. Sanders shares many of Warren’s causes, such as breaking up big Wall Street banks, and many see him as the party’s only real chance to force Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton to tackle more liberal issues.
