[dropcap]O[/dropcap]n January 17th, Reuters editors chose to publish and headline an alleged ‘news’-report “Flap with Warren knocks Sanders' strategy off course”, indicating that Sanders was ‘knocked off course’, and that Warren gained at his expense, when the January 14th final pre-primaries debate in Des Moines included Elizabeth Warren saying that Bernie Sanders had told her that a woman can’t win the Presidency in the United States and Sanders responded by saying that he had never said to anyone anything of the sort because he never believed anything of the sort, and his citing that “Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by 3 million votes” as a clear evidence of that clear fact. The assumption in the headline of this ‘news’-report (it was not presented as being an opinion-piece) was that voters switch from Sanders to Warren because Warren alleged that he said what he alleged he had never said and never believed.

I feel for Warren, she is a conventionally bright woman with all the usual bourgeois nonsense printed in her consciousness but trying very hard to weigh up against the usual reactionary oafs like Biden and Buttgag. She misses the viciousness of the usual elective process whereby the candidates either crawl in the dust before their audiences or tout their inconsequential or non-existent credentials before
credulous audiences. It explains her outbursts in faked enthusiasm and nervous pacing up and down and the stress must be intolerable.
