(FULL TITLE: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez uses her SXSW talk to label FDR's New Deal 'racist' compared to her 'Green New Deal' and protests minorities being treated like 'garbage' - as she draws a bigger audience than any Democrat 2020 hopeful)
She came. She saw. She conquered.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dominated the South by Southwest conference with her mere presence, bringing in a larger crowd than any of the 2020 presidential contenders, all of whom were asked about her or her Green New Deal in their own sessions at the popular event.
The 2,000 plus ballroom - one of the biggest in the Austin Convention Center - was packed, the overflow rooms were flooded with attendees and Bill Nye tweeted a photo of himself from the room waiting to hear the freshman Democrat from New York speak.
The crowd rose to its feet, whooping, cheering and hollering when Ocasio-Cortez entered, but, when she spoke, you could hear a pin drop.
Her one-hour talk was filled with economic policy, social policy and what she's learned in her two months as a member of Congress.
But her bigger message was one of hope, inclusion and equality, particularly for minorities.
She slammed the treatment of minorities throughout recent American history from Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal, which she claimed was racist, to Ronald Reagan's treatment of minorities.
She decried the idea of incrementalism, a belief in change via small steps, and said it took big sweeping ideas to make a difference.
'This idea of like 10 percent better than garbage shouldn't be something we settle for,' she said.
The crowd cheered her on.

All due respect.......If God is for us, who can be against us!!!!!
LOOK BACK to all we were dealing with and facing before Donald Trump came on the scene!!!!
I believe with my whole heart God sent Donald Trump ......and look at what the deep state has thrown at him....
....but look at what our President has accomplished!!!
Some of you are acting like AOC is a Goliath!!!
But a small stone and a boy with a heart for God brought him down!
WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERERS!!!!!
Agree!!!! Wait for her to stumble and fall but she might not for a long long time. Because our ill educated and intellectually lazy youth are buying into her toxic sludge. Same as they have no problem with gay marriage and trans tranny whatever. Also the commie mass media is AOC's automatic megaphone and propaganda machine. A sorry situation.
In this day and age power flows to those who have lots of energy and drive no matter how STOOPID what they propose. This is true not just for AOC.
All due respect Bob....
....but this is giving her tooooo much credit!
Im not saying ignore her....
....but the msm and fox have hyped her so much......they report every time she burps....
...that she is starting to loom larger than life!
Shes residing in our craniums as some kind of bogeyman
SHEs NOT!
Shes a silly, stupid shrill 29 yr old who the Dems are desperate to pass as someone worthy of our attention...AND SHES NOT!......and yes, she is being handled by someone!.....probably Soros
...see who shows up.

They are not nuts. They are committed & dangerous in the extreme and they stand a chance of stealing all of 2020 from POTUS down to dogcatcher.
THEN, they will implement their Final Solution and everyone who isn’t bought off is the target.
ICYMI: Antifa in Vancouver, Canada, have a new slogan: “Forget the Red Pill; use the lead pill.”
After zer0, how can anyone be sanguine that Americans will not vote for their own genocide?
They will.
We may have found a #11 on the Crazy-Hot scale
11:Crazy, 4:Hot
No wonder she hates men.
Can you imagine how many men have told her to “Just Shut Up”?
Its been cool now for about 10 years for white kids to hang with the brothers and hispanics.
But of course never in their neighborhoods.
In the safety of their mom and dads suburban home, they listen to the plight of their downtrodden friends and become instant self loathing activist.

This crowd is the 2nd generation of whites who will write large checks and scream :”Kill Whitey!” while doing so. Their parents are still alive. They have siblings, friends and social media chops.
They want America dead and resurrected in the image of Pol Pot’s Cambodia. There is no logic. It is a frenzy of manipulated self-hatred.
Probably not as many men as who have told her: “Ouch! No teeth....NO TEETH!”
Yeah me and my friends didn’t have that luxury.
We only lived a few blocks from the projects so you had to walk with at least 3 or 4 other Italians just in case.
And just in case happened more than a few times.
They beat my friend who was delivering pizza in the projects.
He drove straight to where we were hanging out and we got about 20 guys together quick.
What a mess. We had to throw as many punches as we could in a few minutes and get out before it would like we were surrounded by the zulu tribe.
i guess these white boys under 35 never experience any of that.
Morons.
They will be turned on in the blink of an eye.
I agree, she sure sounds like Soros, and the media is hyping her, but then that just makes her stronger. Look at Hillary - virtually everyone knows she lies and should be in jail, yet she got 64 million votes or something, and look at Obama, someone barely out of diapers as a national political figure (basically 2 years in the Senate, that’s it), yet he wins 2 terms...certain people have the ability to make millions of people behave irrationally and support them - we’re seeing it again! So watch out...she only getting stronger, by the day.
Thanks
Your point is well taken.
As a lifeling Yankee fan, I take umbrage to that remark. LOL !!
BTW - Is Gov. Cummo a Yankee or Mets fan? I just might have something in common with that piece of work.
LOL !!!
