I’d love to see AOC as President more than I would Pete but I believe AOC would not win the general. Coming in as a surprise candidate and winning would require BOATLOADS of charisma, and Pete has that.
So initially I thought AOC was too young to be president, but she turns 35 in October, so I think that means she’d qualify?
Historically most presidents were in their 50s or 60s when inaugurated; I struggle to see anyone who barely made the cutoff even being considered for nomination.
That’s not why she won’t be considered. She’s progressive. Democrats would rather have a hereditary dictatorship headed by the Trump family than a progressive.
I bet Pete could come in and wreck house
There are such better picks, but he’s definitely not the worst.
I’d like to see a Whitehouse green administration or someone progressive like AoC/Sanders.

Pete isn’t that charismatic and has an awful record. I’d prefer someone who has a consistent record… and not Harris’s - she is far too damaged.
It’s one reason I mentioned Whitehouse.

You mean the one that doesn’t have the balls to ground an aircraft manufacturer that has planes falling out of the sky?
Mayor Pete? That’s funny
