Elizabeth Warren ran for the Massachusetts Senate, and she pits herself against the Republican incumbent, Scott Brown. Around this time, a speech Warren delivered went viral on YouTube, which endeared Warren to populist supporters. In the clip, she explains how everyone benefits from roads, public safety, and the public education system in the United States. She was the only leading economist who predicted the crash recession.
She is a top figure in the Democratic party, and she is popular among American progressives. She served under Barack Obama, and she profoundly influenced policy during this time. Some even consider her to be the dream candidate of the 2020 Presidential election.
