Is Elizabeth Warren running for President?

I know of no datum or data suggesting she is running for President. Is there such a datum?

(I am not very omniscient. There could easily be something she said somewhere of which I am unaware, so the question is not entirely rhetorical.)

That said, here's some data:

1. Elizabeth has said she's not running.
2. Other people have said she's not running.
3. Elizabeth Warren has signed a letter encouraging/supporting Hillary Clinton's running for the office, if she so chooses.
4. Elizabeth Warren has, of late, ramped up her speaking engagements.
5. Elizabeth Warren continues to fundraise like mad. She remains the 3rd best fundraiser in the Democratic Party, right behind Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

That's all the relevant data I have. Make of it what you will.



Personally, I am encouraging Elizabeth Warren to run for President in 2016. We won't know her final decision on that subject for some time, I assume.

To those who would also like to encourage her to run, contact information can be found here. Write to her or call her. You can make a difference!

She could probably hold off an announcement until after the 2014 election cycle, though in modern elections that can be something of a disadvantage.

to draft her. At this point I'll take Warren or Sanders or anyone else that will move the dialogue WAAAAYYYYY to the left of where it is now.
