77. Yes, Warren will be elected at that time if she's the best person for the job.

What she shouldn't be elected for is her gender if we won't have a woman president by then. What is up with all this sexist crap? Hillary doesn't need to be president because she's a woman. She shouldn't be president because she's the wrong person for the job. So sick and tired of the fake rah rah crap over Hillary. She doesn't need our support because she's a woman. She needs our support if her expertise and values are what we need right now, and unfortunately they aren't.
