'National voice': Young Democrats want AOC to be president

After a whirlwind month that saw her crisscross the United States in support of Sen. Bernie Sanders's presidential campaign, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is being called a 'national voice' by supporters who would like to see her become president one day.

“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a leader in the progressive movement,” Sanders campaign adviser Jeff Weaver told Politico. “She is broadly popular, frankly, among Democratic voters. She is particularly strong with young voters, voters of color. She’s an important national voice, and adding her weight to the political revolution is a real coup for us.”

Calls for Ocasio-Cortez to be Sanders's vice president pick have ramped up after Sanders said the New York Democrat would play a “very, very important role” in his potential White House.

To hold the office of vice president, a candidate must be at least 35 years old and a natural-born citizen. Though she isn't old enough to hold the position, when asked, Ocasio-Cortez, 30, said, "It'd be an honor to be vice president.”

Waleed Shahid, a former aide who has worked with both Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez, suggested the New York freshman has an untapped and far-reaching base.

“AOC is popular among many diverse constituencies in the Democratic base, and particularly among unlikely voters,” Shahid said.

Go for it. She's the real leader of the Democrap party anyway. When Nutzy Pelosi agreed to impeach, that's when she handed the reins to AOC

[Husker24]

Is she even old enough, not that laws apply to Dems or anything?

People in hell want ice water.

These fools think she is actually popular! She polls very badly outside her weird district.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

5 more years she will be eligible.

[Captain Peter Blood]

7 more years.

[SERKIT]

She is fully enrolled in the Young Pioneers Division of the National Socialist Democrat Workers Party, aka DNC.

The “moderate” leftist wing of the RAT Party have lost control. AOC and Comrade Sanders are the real leaders of their party today.

Obama was not a natural born citizen.
As long as Nancy signs off, she is eligible.

Just in case the pendulum swings back that far I’m staying way overstocked on projectile equipment.

[samtheman]

LOL!

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Best blast against her ever...

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

I want AOC to star in a porn flick but that ain’t gonna happen. But...I suppose there’s a better chance of that than her being POTUS.

They all think that all the smart people agree with them.

[Deplorable American1776]

What's the difference between AOC and A.I.?

A.I. is smarter...😋
