Not really, once it becomes Hillary Clinton vs Pub booshdag, I might actually just root for the pub to hasten the revolution.
Having seen the face of revolution up close and personal, I'm not interested in hastening it.

I may be naive, but I believe in the ability of the American people to solve their problems without resorting to wholesale slaughter.

Wholesale slaughter is not revolution. Sounds more like status quo than revolution.

I can say that because I live in Colorado and watched a serious effort by republican officials to bundle up a bunch of conservative eastern Colorado counties and secede from the rest of the state! Some of them even got re-elected!
precisely, and how far did it get them (in a 'local' GOP stronghold)?..:lol:

Elizabeth Warren is far too intelligent to make the Biden Mistake. She knows she'd lose a great deal of influence and credibility if she was to be a vice president, so my gentleman's bet is that she will politely but firmly refuse the offer (we know it will be made) so she can continue the work she's already started.

If she decides to run in 2020 or after, she has my vote.

I used to say that Hillary had my vote, but that was before she came out as a tepid apologist for abusive corporate power. I rather doubt Ms Warren will echo that position.
I have always considered Hillary to be the epitome of everything wrong with politicians.
I am still firm at none of the above.

I have seen regime change up close. That's not revolution.
I'm not sure if that's a distinction without a difference.

I don't want a bloodbath, I want people to face up to and solve the problems this country faces.

Like I said, I am perfectly willing to concede that my position may be overly optimistic.

I think it is overly optimistic, and while I do think I understand your position, my argument differs from yours semantically. I'm saying that you and I define revolution differently. I'm not longing for a bloodbath.

You seem to think I give a fuck about the fact that Bernie Sandwich says cool things. Get your Hillary rhetoric ready for when he endorses her.
