    Oh please don’t. I love her and Bernie but he’s too old and she’s too female/not white. Find a white man who is just okay and fix democracy before trying again with a woman.

      2028 might be the only time to even consider a dark skinned woman tbh. People wouldn’t have voted for Obama if they hadn’t been fed up with Bush’s bullshit war (which Obama then of course did almost nothing to pull out of). If the American people are EVER going to vote for AOC it’ll be because the economy is shit from an old white man fucking everything up for everyone.

        Dont you think society has gotten less racist as time has gone on? Less misogynistic too (though less noticeable there). I’ve noticed even in my lifetime, though progress is slow and there are pockets of resistance and some backsliding, like Andrew Tate.

        I think it’s too risky now to consider anyone but an old white guy (this is assuming a fair election even takes place). I wouldn’t put it past the American public to vote in another MAGA rather than a woman.
