You guys need more than just two relevant parties. AOC being this popular should prompt her to start her own movement, supported by Bernie, raher than clinging to the “Democrats”.
Newsom is trying his level best to have a right-of-center glow up right now. I’m almost certain that the DNC plans to tilt the scales for him. They likely will resist running a woman again for a long time because they’ve stupidly come to the conclusion that it was the genitalia of the candidates and not the quality of the candidate, campaign, and platform that caused them to lose what should have been two of the most winnable elections ever.
As much as I absolutely adore Bernie, the guy needs a rest. He’d be starting as VP for a potential 8 year period of two terms at 86…That means he’d be 94 by the time he left office. The man is an absolute beast, but father time catches up with us all and I don’t want to see his final days in politics to be a sad decline after everything he’s given. He deserves to serve as a badass senator, like he always has, until a progressive gets elected as president and then retire.
AOC and Pete Buttigeig as VP, on the other hand…or Tim Waltz again…or Elizabeth Warren for a double team, all woman ticket? Hell yeah.
yeah, one of the reasons the dems are a dead/dying brand currently is because they keep putting in who they feel has earned it the most, not who the population actually likes. That also leads to entire party embarrassment when they fight for that person and they turn out to be an abysmal milquetoast failure like Biden.
Agree but have the senior members support and coach AOC, have a united front. We’re supposed to support and learn from our elders but they have an obligation to move aside and allow the younger leaders to rise.
Next to Bernie she’s the best the Dems have to offer. And for any possible run for President, she beats Bernie on age.
If they run Harris again, or Newsom or some other conservative Democrat in 2028, the party is fucked.

They need election reform for that to happen.

Progressive woman of color
Or
Conservative white guy with (D) next to his name.
Pretty sure we can guess who will win the primary if they can help it. DNC leadership is not interested in what it’s membership wants.
Absolutely. I can’t see AOC being given a chance in 2028 unfortunately, unless things change a bit. Not excited for Newsom as a candidate :/
Her as president and Bernie as vp. If they kill her then they put someone even more opposed to their views in power.

Of course they will. Harris or Buttigeig
