Gwen Speeth, a supporter of Democratic U.S. presidential candidate Senator Elizabeth Warren, holds a sign outside Ms. Warren's home after Ms. Warren ended her 2020 campaign for U.S. president in Cambridge, Massachusetts, March 5, 2020.I’m not going to feign impartiality here: I am heartbroken that Elizabeth Warren has dropped out of the U.S. Democratic primary race.
Pressed on why that is, they mumble. She’s too schoolmarmish, too lecture-y. Those voters on the fence, they won’t tip for her. A woman candidate is “just too risky right now,” for this make-or-break election.Meanwhile, the two males who defeated her are the embodiment of shouty, and of risky. To impersonate Joe Biden, Stephen Colbert puts on a pair of aviator sunglasses, tips his head back and YELLS. To do Bernie Sanders, Larry David hunches over, waves his arms, and YELLS. To do Ms.
Full confession: I considered not voting for Ms. Warren, too. For a moment there, I thought I would have to go for Michael Bloomberg. I didn’t like it, I’d hold my nose. But I had to think about those nervous white men in the middle, the disillusioned Republicans, the swayable Independents. What would reassure them? What would make them feel comfortable?
The spaces of power, the boardrooms and government offices, were not designed for women, or queer people, or people of colour. They’re not set up for our needs. Some of us get in there by accommodating, by contorting ourselves, by lying low or going high, by pretending we don’t notice that we’re being looked through or talked over.
Warren wants Trump opens the borders to coronavirus? Stupid democrats
😳🙄
'We'? This is Canada, not America
Hey Globe and Mail, it's not our election and we have no power over who gets elected, so why do you end the statement 'we'll never get the leaders we need'! And why do you care about their election?
Frauds like Elizabeth Warren. This is why Trump won.
Who is “We”? In democracy citizens can choose their individual choice.
Do you mean “Pochohantas” ?
What do you have against Tulsi?
SherylJDunn1 Don't count Warren out. she could still be VP with Bernie
She is an identity politics grifter
She’s terrible
Yeah, because we always need leaders that faked their heritage to steal a grant for minorities and when exposed lied about it in a most childish manner.
Right
She wasn’t the right candidate for the president and the people spoke...eventually the right woman will run and win. Just because she was a woman currently running didn’t make her the right choice
“in large part because she is a woman.” Nonsense. If she were Michelle Obama she would probably be leading the race.
She sunk herself by lying about her heritage. I liked her a lot until then. Liars are not leaders we need.
The lady who lied about being native to further her career is who you 'need?'
Because boobs make you better? OK...
She's terrible
