    1. the way she talked about political fame/title being unimportant and fleeting but universal healthcare/higher wages/etc could be forever being way more important/useful to the country was fucking amazing

    2. I’m tired of seeing every top comment of one of these articles saying that AOC should stick to running for senate. No, this is a national emergency and we need a primary of every viable option, to which she absolutely is. I like AOC because she’s capable of building a movement. Movements win elections.

      The Democratic bench is huge but AOC has something most of them don’t, a dedicated base that actually gets excited and leaving the door open is the smart move. If Trump crashes the economy, a progressive outsider might look pretty good by 2028.

      Honestly, I hope she runs to take Schumers seat in the senate. Time to get that dinosaur out of office.

      I love how she is able to make her points while keeping her composure and coming off as a wonderfully “woman of the people” with that Presidential ease and authority.

      I’m looking forward to the next generation of Democrats.

      May the 3rd time be the charm… Risky, but I like her and would support her primary.

    7. I think she would make a good president but I don’t think she had developed enough relationships yet. As much as people don’t want it to be true politics is often about how people feel about you.

      Speaking as a woman democrat, democrats will NEVER vote for a woman.

      It needs to be a male candidate or dems will lose again.

      I may be downvoted to hell for this but dems need to have a white democratic man run.

      I’d 100% vote for AOC if she ran. I voted for Kamala as well, and Hilary. I’m a POC woman, of course I want a woman to be president.

      Hot take: USA will not vote for a woman. After Hilary lost to Trump I knew it wasn’t gonna happen. When Kamala was chosen to run against Trump, my first thought was “shit, she’s gonna lose.”

      I hope the Democratic Party nominates some standard issue white man next, or else history will repeat itself. I want change, but USA is not ready for that. Reddit is progressive overall, but is not reflective of all of USA’s population. Reddit may elect a female president, but USA will not. Baby steps is a white male democratic president and democratic rule of the branches to fix all the horrible shit that’s speed running the country to its own demise. We can talk about a POC female president again after that.

      If I was in whatever meeting that agreed to front Kamala to run against trump, me, a black woman would have said that that’s a bad idea, and a risk we shouldn’t take when competing against trump. Democrats fatally misunderstood how conservative and misogynistic the still USA is. And if AOC runs against some crazy white male MAGAT, she will lose.

      If you buy into how the media reports on her, it’s easy to assume she doesn’t have a real chance. But if you see how real people actually react to her in the real world, it’s a totally different story.

      Seeing her get a rock star welcome at a packed arena in Idaho of all places last year, seeing her energize the crowd as she expressed true understanding of what Americans are going through, not just at the national level, but also at the local level, she really connects with people, and she doesn’t make it all about herself. She shares the spotlight with local leaders to give them a boost as well.

      If we want to turn this country around and make it work for everyone, I believe she has what it takes to do that.

      Of the 300m+ Americans, almost none have denied 2028 speculation. This election is going to be packed.

      Protect this woman at all costs. As we move more and more toward Russian autocracy, I really fear for public figures capable of leading strong political movements.

      I just can’t conceive the US swinging from an anti-immigrant racist sexist to a liberal and strong Latina woman that quickly. I wish that could happen but I think that’s like asking for pigs to fly.

      Jesus if its AOC vs Trump in 2028 we’re all doomed. American’s just won’t vote for a woman. Please realise this! Don’t make the same mistake for a third time!

      The first thing she can do is make the Democrats as visible as the right wing is: create propaganda and public talking points about what democracy is, how oligarchs destroy democracy, economies and society, what a just society looks like and validate people’s opinions about what’s right and activism to keep the bastards honest.

      Ps. TO HELL WITH THE DOWNVOTES! I said what I said.

      I’d still rather see her as Majority Leader. She’d be in that seat, directing legislation for decades. Far better pick than Chuck the Schmuck.
