She checks all the boxes unless you’re the type to believe Republican spin (she was a bartender once but has more education than most GoP house members). I’m unfortunately sure she’ll get the same DNC treatment as Sanders, though :/
I don’t think the DNC will be able to stop her. They can only do so much. I was a huge Bernie fan, volunteered at rallies and everything, but even I can acknowledge that the support was not quite strong enough to overcome the establishment headwind. He came close twice, but I think there were a number of people who wrote him off over his age and whatnot.
I think AOC could tip the scales, she’s young and smart and has real conviction. She has all the Bernie benefits with none of the baggage.
Charismatic + Young + Intelligent + Christofascist…
I think Republicans might need to remove one search criterion to make that work.
As for Dems… that might just be AOC? Lol
I’d love to vote for AOC too
I would love to vote for AOC. She will be old enough to run next year, but it will be four years before the next election.

Honestly I think aoc is the only I could be excited to vote for right now.
What, other than bleak cynicism, leads you to that conclusion?
Why, bleak cynicism of course!
No really, it’s just my concern since she’s on the progressive side and you know how the Dems are.
History, history leads to that conclusion
You’re right. DeSantis would’ve been catastrophic if he wasn’t such a little weirdo with no charisma.
