Independent Senator Bernie Sanders floated Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as a potential presidential candidate in the 2028 elections, saying that even though it’s “her decision to make,” she is a “very, very good politician.”
Speaking to Axios, Sanders said that he has been “out on the streets with her” and noticed how she responds when people come up to her. “It’s so incredibly genuine and open.”
Ocasio-Cortez is seemingly positioning herself to run for higher office, whether it is challenging Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for his seat or to make a run for president.



America is incredibly sexist. And racist.
As much as I would love for her to change things up, the reality is America isn’t ready to elect a woman. She simply won’t win. We need a male candidate, especially against the current testosterone driven gop. A woman simply won’t convert vites from gop to democratic, it just won’t happen.
Nothing will convert gop to democratic. It’s the Trump cult. We need someone to get out the vote with the people who failed to vote last time, perhaps bring in some disillusioned leftists who can compromise.
