Elizabeth Warren, US Democratic senator, announces 2020 presidential bid
Senator Elizabeth Warren launches her presidential campaign north-west of Boston.
US senator Elizabeth Warren, struggling to move past criticism over her claims of Native American heritage, aimed for a fresh start on Saturday (local time) with the formal launch of her 2020 presidential campaign, saying that she is fighting for all Americans.
Key points:
- An unprecedented four female candidates, so far, are vying for the Democratic nomination
- Ms Warren has been dogged by a Native American ancestry controversy
- Mr Trump's campaign said the American people would reject her "dishonest campaign"
The Massachusetts Democrat, a leader of the party's progressive wing, made her announcement from a historic site in Lawrence, north-west of Boston, that launched the US organised labour movement.
Senator Warren, 69, has made worker rights, fair wages and access to healthcare central to her campaign.
"This is the fight of our lives. The fight to build an America where dreams are possible, an America that works for everyone," Senator Warren said.
"And that is why I stand here today: to declare that I am a candidate for president of the United States of America."

Absolutely 0% chance of winning.
Will bail in early rounds, unable to attract the quantum of funding required to run for the POTUS.
Her claim to a Native American bloodline is not tenuous, but laughable ... her street cred is shot.
IMHO
