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.
But half the population is female. I would expect all (except the hardest GOP followers) of them to welcome a female president for a change? The problem with Kamala was just that she was pretty invisible during Biden’s presidency and with him pulling out so late she had this whole “second choice” thing hanging over her.
