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.
I don’t think so. Clinton was dislikably arrogant and put very little policy forward. Kamala didn’t have the arrogant of Clinton but still in classic Democratic fashion did very little in the way of policy put forward to earn people’s votes.
The problem isn’t women. It’s shire campaigns and I think people let the DNC off the hook too much. They’re only effective when taking out decent people like Sanders.
