CBS News correspondent Nikole Killion asked Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) why as a woman of color she would "back an old white guy" during an interview that aired Monday.
The freshman congresswoman had announced she was endorsing Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) for president and appeared at a rally together on Saturday.
“As a woman of color, why back an old white guy? And is this the future of the party?” asked Killion after Ocasio-Cortez spoke at the Sanders rally in Queens, N.Y.
“I’m actually very excited about this partnership because it shows what we have to do in our country is that we have to come together across race, across gender, across generation," Ocasio-Cortez added, while sitting next to Sanders.

I should add the complaint is Sanders is white, not that he’s a radical socialist.
And people wonder why our country is forked up.
According to CBS, what counts is the color of your skin and not the content of your character.
We _get_ it.
Cirtex is not any way a “woman of color.”
Racist question.
Question should have been “As a barmaid, how can you support a person who hs never done an honest day’s work?”
Why is she such a bigot? What’s with all the hate speech from this person?
Why does she hate whites? Is she a closet racist or it is out there in the little digs and snide remarks?
Ans. RED!!!
Bernie is not white. He is Red.
Sanders ain’t white.
He’s Red.
Ditto for AOC.
Why didn’t they ever ask why any white person would ever vote for a homosexual black man?
Er, AOC is white. Lol.
I kind of think that young progressives like Sanders despite the fact that he is old and white because he is kind of a Santa Claus figure.
At some point she hopes to inherit his supporters.
Rush just touched on this.
Because being a leftist, socialist means never having to be stand for anything, let alone consistency or truth or a particular set of values.
AOC loves Marx, Lenin, Trotski, Stalin, etc. because they were Red as in Communist, despite them being old dead white men. Why would Sanders be any different?
Killion sounds like a racist.
