Presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren spoke before thousands of people gathered in Washington Square Park in New York on Monday evening, using a pivotal moment of her campaign to paint a vivid and at times gruesome picture of corruption -- and the history of women, specifically, who have fought back
"We’re not here today because of famous arches or famous men. In fact, we’re not here because of men at all. We’re here because of some hard-working women," said Warren, the only female candidate holding a top spot in the polls, as she stood before the iconic arch in the park named after America’s first president, George Washington.
"Business owners got richer, politicians got more powerful and working people paid the price. Does any of that sound familiar?" Warren asked the crowd. Warren, a candidate who has centered her campaign on the message that the prescient issues of today's political era have all been caused by corruption in Washington, has seen a steady rise in the polls and crowd sizes of up to 15,000, according to the campaign, in the final summer months.
Though the crowd reacted back with shouts and boos to show support for her plans, Warren continued to address the question she repeatedly gets from voters on the trail and from the press: Can she win over moderate voters?
