Latino USA continues its coverage of the Democratic field for the presidential nomination. This time, we sit down with the senator from Massachusetts, Elizabeth Warren.
Senator Warren is a relative newcomer to politics; she was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 2012. Now, a year after she declared her run for the presidency, primaries have started, but she has not had a strong start. In Iowa Senator Warren came in third place with 18% of the vote, behind Pete Buttigieg and Bernie Sanders. In New Hampshire, she came in fourth with less than 10% of the vote, this time also behind Senator Amy Klobuchar.
Despite these initial setbacks, Senator Warren says the fight is far from over. She spoke to Maria Hinojosa from Arlington, Virginia, just before going onstage for a town hall. They talk about her views on immigration, Puerto Rico, continuing her campaign, and…the senator’s selfie game.

Thanks for interviewing Elizabeth Warren.
I think it was rude, dumb and pretty incompetent journalism to begin the interview by asking her about Bernie Sanders. Even on a Liberal/Progressive channels we hear these kind of cuts towards Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, and even Willie Brown and his lame propagandizing for Michael Bloomberg had to cut down Bernie. Willie Brown is the swamp, and so are most of the people who feel they have to attack progressives for wanting some democracy in our democracy.
