Could Elizabeth Warren get the Democratic nomination?

I'd prefer Warren/Biden. He wouldn't even have to move out of his house if they won.

Have we ever had a vice president that served in two separate administrations, why would they do so? Hillary would be better served by having Warren or Sanders as her running mate - but I don't see her as being emotionally or intellectually secure enough to make such choices. It is virtually impossible for a late entrant to gain the democratic nomination at this point.

The fact that late August 2015 makes someone a "late entrant" for November 2016 makes me very sad.

largely agreed, but this is no time for pre-1984 nostalgia!

She won't pick Warren or Sanders, and she would be foolish to do so anyway. Their home states are safe and they merely reinforce Hillary's weakness among general election voters (not primary voters) that she's too liberal. If I were to draw up a perfect candidate it would be a Hispanic man from a major swing state (Ohio, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Florida) with something that can be played as conservative to moderate bona fides, maybe a former prosecutor or military guy. Not sure if anyone like that exists, but that would be the smart pick.
