Warren has said she isn't interested. Can't we respect her choice? We talk about being "pro-choice" in abortion matters but we continue to push someone who is a reluctant candidate.

Sanders, for some of the same reasons is, in my view, unelectable. If we had a plurality of progressive voters in this country we would have a winner. But his views are far too extreme for the great unwashed voting masses.

Let us leave both of them in the Senate to fight the good fight and find the new bright, shining star for 2016. In my humble opinion it is NOT Clinton.
