Imagine a President AOC, working hand-in-hand with Sanders, Mamdani, Newsom and Warren to radically transform America into a fair, equitable and caring nation?
The place could be unrecognisable in 8 years, and the GOP would be a shadow of its former self for a generation or two.

Most accurate pollster is like the tallest pygmy. I still remember “the most accurate pollster” saying Harris was winning Iowa by 10 points and the entire Midwest as a result.

As long as she runs on zero funding to Israel and prosecuting the Epstein files/Trump I’d vote for her. We need a millennial president bare minimum too.
StudiesinLamplight on
Alright, go for it. Pull the trigger. I was in the “She should run for senate against Schumer” camp, but if she is going to enter the presidential race as a front runner, I am on board.

AOC leading the Democratic ticket in 2028 is the best way to ensure that MAGA has a life beyond Trump. Do those of you celebrating this – do you ever get outside of the Progressive bubble?
OdinsLightning on
Please No. I like AOC. But we need a slam dunk. America is racist and misogynistic. Its sad but true.

I know she’d do a great job, but she can have a much better long term impact on progress in the country by waiting. The presidency has historically been the capstone and end of a political career. If she won two terms she’d be done at 46. Thats easily 30 years short of what it could be. That’s a long time to watch from the sidelines and be followed by secret service for the rest of your life.

I love her and think she would make a great president but she would 100% lose a general election. Too many racist, sexist people. She is hated by MAGA and disliked by too many independent. Fox News has done an excellent job of vilifying her. It’s sad but true.

Surely America is ready for a woman potus this time… right?

This poll is an outlier. While I hope she runs and I would probably vote for her, all other polls have her in a distant third or fourth place.

It’s still about two years out. I get you don’t just make a decision on a whim, but a lot can change between now and then.
BarryBro on
This feels too hopeful like Bernie, and will probably be rejected but I’ve been saying for about 6 years at least, AOC 2028
Skastrik on
That’s not the position she’s best for, she needs to kick Schumer out and freaking lead the Senate. That’s where she can still stay like she is and not have to run to the middle for votes like every presidential candidate has to.
AbleCap5222 on
If she runs as the bringer of the righteous hammer – that would be the most perfect and amazing thing

I think AOC is doing splendidly, but I don’t see how it makes any sense to run a third woman against fascists. They win on imagery, and, to Americans, the image of a woman is weak and losing.
Kerbonaut2019 on
She has zero chance of winning the presidency in America’s current form. If she were the Dem nominee I would of course vote for her, but running a young, progressive Latina woman will fail spectacularly when factoring in voting demographics. Obviously, she wouldn’t get any Republican votes. She would very clearly split moderate/independents, and would lose some who lean left but are convinced by the mainstream media that she is too radical. And then, she’d also probably lose some neoliberals who don’t think a woman should be president, especially a minority woman, in the same way that many of them failed to turn out for Harris in 2024. With America’s current voting demographics, running AOC would be an unmitigated disaster and those who might push her to the nomination will deserve the loss in 2028.
She should stay focused on congressional politics for now. She can definitely unseat Schumer in the Senate.
skoomaking4lyfe on
Probably voting for her no matter what, unless the dems somehow nominate an equally acceptable candidate (lol). So yes, she’s on the ballot I’m all in.
Dry-University797 on
I’d vote for her in a heartbeat.
TheOtherUprising on
In my opinion she should run for senate. She could use more time to hone her messaging for a national campaign and the Democrats desperately need better leadership in the Senate.

Remember folks, this is ground zero for
political manipulation. When powerful people are really afraid of something they won’t tell you from on high to stop. They’ll hire bots, professional commenters and journalists to say “well yea we like this, but it’s just not reasonable”.
rikaateabug on
I’ll support whatever she does, but I’m not excited to watch *another* incredibly capable woman lose to the worst possible option because of her gender…
Please AOC, run for senate and let’s get Schumer the fuck outta here instead 🙏
dickmccarthy88 on
She’s got my vote
pnd83 on
The DNC will actively plot against her. The leadership would prefer GOP control over a progressive Democrat in power.

The state of the USA a Latina is NOT winning a general election. We have a racism and misogyny epidemic.

Bernie 2.0 aint happening

Oh please please run AOC. The country will be the easiest time to squash democrats
TouchGraceMaidenless on
The DNC will never let this happen.
AMemoryComeALive on
Corporate Democrats run the party and they’ll never let it happen. Bernie should have won the nomination in 2016 and 2020 and both times they fucked him over. they’re not gonna let AOC make it through, and if she somehow did you’d see a ton of democrats trying to kill anything she wants done
Vandermeerr on
Thank God
DoughnutDesperate152 on
Whatever campaign she chooses I will support her
misguded on
I am for most of the things she stands for, but this seems to be a great way to lose an election that republicans are practically handing you. Trump still has his base. To win, you need the people in the center. She’ll scare them towards Trump.
N4R4B on
I hope not. She is the best candidate and yet somehow I think Americans can’t compute or accept a woman as the boss of the Outfit.
Evangelicals will do everything to stop her in presidential elections and everything to help her win the nomination.
5Tygrysow on
She would probably make a fine president but this country isn’t ready to elect a woman.
Vondelsplein on
She cannot win. Jesus Christ we learn nothing.
jazzy3492 on
She should spend a term or two in the Senate first, largely because I want her in politics as long as possible (assuming she stays true ti her values) and after the presidency, there’s nowhere to go.
ruggev on
Here we go! Redditors will circlejerk her to infinity and then meltdown when the real world smacks them.. again.
