          She’s not grown up enough. But she will be one day.

                    The difference is that mine was used to further illustrate your childish/immature (ironic, no?) nature, which you flawlessly glided into.

                    Saying someone is too young to run for president when they’re a couple years younger than the average age makes sense. Let’s have someone with ideals they grew in the early 2000/90s/80s run the country in 2024. Makes sense only when you yourself are in that bucket.

                Trolling aside we could use a young president who gives a shit about the future of this country and the planet.

                  I agree. However her resume is rather short on management positions at the moment, so I’d say she’s unqualified. But, I think she can get there. She does need to keep her face in the media though, I haven’t really seen her much lately.

                    She’s a politician. She’s never going to get a job in management.

        She turns 35 this year before the election. She’s eligible.

      We need her in the legislature. Presidents fuck off after 4-8 years, we can’t spend one of our progressives so early

      As much as I’d like her, AOC has the same problem as Hillary. She draws more opposition than support.

        The same Hilary Clinton that won the popular election in 2016?

          Exactly.

          In the states that actually matter, Hillary drew more Trump voters to the polls than Hillary voters. It doesn’t particularly matter that she won landslide victories in states where Democrats always win landslide victories.

          In 2016, both parties tried to throw the election, and the Democrats succeeded.

            Agreed. I would love for AOC to get the nomination, but I honestly don’t think she couldn’t this particular election. I think she’s been too polarized by the media and is considered a “radical pick”.

        I would say that her problem is very different than Hillary’s. Hillary was not popular with Democrats and she was hated by Republicans. AOC is loved by some Democrats, liked by a bunch, and disliked by some while being absolutely reviled by Republicans. That would get AOC more support than Hillary got.

          It’s the “absolutely reviled by Republicans” part that is the concern. It doesn’t matter how popular she is with Democrats. It matters how popular she is in the swing states, and whether she can be competitive in a red one.

          Mark Kelly can win the swing states; AOC and Hillary cannot.

            I’m not familiar with how popular she is or is not among unaffiliated voters. That matters more than how Republicans feel about her.

              Many of the people you call “unaffiliated” most recently voted Republican, and refer to themselves as Republicans. When I speak of “Republican” voters, I mean the people who currently intend to vote for Trump, but would be willing to switch for the right candidate. You would probably call that group “unaffiliated”.
