I am frequently asked this sort of question. It is hard to explain to people how much she gets it.
At an Elizabeth Warren campaign house party, I mentioned a video that I have previously posted. I just reviewed that video, before sending the link to the person to whom I promised it.
The Coming Collapse of the Middle Class.
After my review and after sending off the link, I thought of sending this also to some key people in the Elizabeth Warren campaign. Here is the explanation I sent along with the link:
This post shows the single most effective Elizabeth Warren video that I am aware of. I am totally surprised that this video is not featured on all of Warren’s web sites.

After watching this video again, I can honestly say to any middle-class person who asks me, “Does Elizabeth Warren get it?”, “Not only does she get it, she can explain things about your predicament that you don’t even get. Watching this video will open your eyes to things that are going on in your life that you felt but couldn’t fully explain before.”
How many politicians come by in a lifetime for which you can say that?
