When I was a kid, the GOP opposed centralized top-down economic planning. They argued for strong limits on the federal government's influence on commercial matters, favoring market forces to drive production, investment, compensation, and the allocation of resources and capital.

Times change.

Among my favorite things about Warren is that, despite reaching the pinnacle in his field and accumulating vast wealth, he didn't believe it made him an expert on every topic of public interest - insisting that every opinion held be heard.

I'd recommend this example to some people.

I became aware of Warren in 1987. How lucky to have watched, learned, and participated in a lot of this history.

Over the years, having my mind changed has added more to performance than changing someone else's.
