The thought of an Elizabeth Warren presidency sends shivers down my spine.
A group encouraging Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren to run for president is ramping up, launching a website this week just ahead of the liberal Netroots Nation conference.
According to The Boston Globe and other news organizations, ready4warren.com launched Tuesday after several months of having a social media presence on Twitter and Facebook.
“We aren’t wealthy or well-connected,” reads a post on the group’s site. “We don’t have any lobbyists. What we are is a movement of individuals working together who believe that folks like us should have a greater say in the direction of our country. We Are Ready for Elizabeth Warren to run for President in 2016. Warren is the backbone that the Democratic Party too often forgets it needs.”
The Ready for Warren site includes a petition urging Warren to run, and, according to the Globe and other news organizations, there are plans to generate momentum for the organization at the Netroots gathering later this week in Detroit.
