Standing five feet and five inches tall with her signature ruby red lips, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, AOC, now the youngest woman in Congress and leader of The Squad, was once known as Sandy, the dorky kid with big front teeth living in the working class Parkchester neighborhood of the Bronx.
'I was born in a place where my zip code determined my destiny,' she says in biography AOC: The Fearless Rise and Powerful Resonance of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez by Lynda Lopez, out June 2. 'My parents did everything in their power to move me out of that zip code'.
From scrubbing toilets with her mother, to leading 'The Squad' in Congress, the author describes how AOC rose to politics and reveals the congresswoman's future aspirations.
Responding to a suggestion she might be a dream candidate in 2028 when she’d be 35, she says ‘Never…I want to be Bernie Sanders but never run for president.
'I want to be the kooky old lady who brings her cats to the floor of Congress and says, ''Here's the right thing to do.'' Alexandria says in the book.
'I just want to be chilling with Sonia Sotomayor, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, wearing gold hoop earrings with a big old FU and a pretty necklace,' she adds.

Does her biography contain simple words and lots of cartoon drawings?
Worked out for Pelousy.

I don't think you'll ever have to worry about that anyway Honey.

The ‘chilling’ remembrance keeps running through my mind of when the POLS were wanting a raise and ‘justified’ themselves by claiming that without a raise before you know it only slugs and dummies and selfish people would be running for office.
Well they got their raise BUT the prediction pretty much has come about.
CHEER UP, THEY SAID, THINGS COULD BE WORSE.
Damned if I didn’t cheer up and YEP, THINGS GOT WORSE.
AOC pegs the upper right hand quadrant of the crazy/sexy chart.
Hahahaha
Sure--there's a toilet paper shortage going on, that would be the best use of that lofty tome.
I believed you the first time you said it, but by the third time I've grown suspicious that you want to bang her. 😁
