Democratic presidential candidates Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and former Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-Texas) have quite different campaign strategies so far.

Warren is known for her heavy focus on policy — The Washington Post reports that her "overriding vision is that the federal government should intervene to fix markets when they fail ordinary people." She has proposed paying for expanded child care with a wealth tax on the rich, breaking up monopolies in the tech and agriculture industries, government-manufactured insulin, and an aggressive infrastructure plan in which the government would pay for three million homes and apartments.
