Will AOC be president one day?

[opinterph]

I am not sure of your point.

My point was that back in November nobody knew how much the stimulus check might be – it had not yet been signed into law.

My response was to opinterph. I knew what you meant and you are right. Biden said $2,000 checks right up to the run off vote.

Ahhh~ Alas, I did not know what was meant. Thank you for clearing the misunderstanding.

All the same, the article linked below helps me understand the flavor of the moment when Mr. Biden was speaking. I concede that parsing the words in retrospect does appear to support the notion that the president-elect was promising mathematical addition.

At a campaign rally [on January 4th] in Atlanta, Biden cited the ramifications that choice could have on the possibility of $2,000 stimulus checks.

“If you send Jon [Ossoff] and the reverend [Raphael Warnock] to Washington, those $2,000 checks will go out the door, restoring hope and decency for so many people who are struggling right now,” Biden said.

“If you send senators [David] Perdue and [Kelly] Loeffler back to Washington, those checks will never get there,” he said.

Fate of $2,000 stimulus checks could be determined by Georgia Senate race (CNBC; January 5, 2021)

You think [Alexandria Ocasio–Cortez] has presidential ambitions?

She is a climber.

In answer to your question: It depends on what is America like; what is the form of the Democratic Party; what are the alignments of the Republican and Democratic parties (I think gradually they are starting to win some states that were previously on the other’s turf); and then consider given conditions with an upcoming election cycle.

With exception of 1988 George Bush, every U.S. presidential election since 1952 which elected a new commander in chief also delivered a party switch for the White House.

The idea of a presidential-election-winning Alexandria Ocasio–Cortez may be based in part on winning a Democratic pickup of the presidency following a Republican incumbent who is likely term-limited.

Right now, I think Election 2024 will end up a Democratic hold. That the Republicans don’t win again until at least 2028. The next Democratic pickup would probably be, at the earliest, 2036.

Will Alexandria Ocasio–Cortez still be thought so promising at age 47 in 2036?

Maybe.

Then again, who else will rise in the Democratic Party may be remaining to be seen. That it may be someone not yet in office.

What will the politics be? With the Democratic Party? With the citizens? With the nation?


I think Alexandria Ocasio–Cortez and “The Squad’s” refusal to challenge power in her party—meaning, she and they had a chance to hold out on voting to re-elect Nancy Pelosi House speaker if Pelosi did not bring to the floor a vote on Medicare for All—shows us AOC is not a leader.

Since 2018, and currently, “AOC” is a star.

Stars fade.

I don't think she would be president because so far while she has some basic integrity about how to treat people, her math doesn't seem to work. You can't just magic money up out of nowhere.

(well you can, but we'll probably see the consequences of that over the next ten to fifteen years because you just can't do it forever, and the last time anybody balanced a budget in the US, Monica was giving blowjobs. Obama tried (some small amount of fiscal discipline that is, I don't know about the blow jobs).)

Hell even when shown an ad that says they are wrong, they ignore it. CE&P is for Dem bobbleheads only these days.

It's a liberal hell-hole where they think they're better than Trump supporters but act in the very same manner, making excuses and keeping silent on the lies.

I still think that Stacey Abrams could be a very viable candidate by 2024! I like that idea better than ANY other Democrat who's in the "stable of possible candidates."

I think she has a lot more of a "clue" than AOC, though there IS the fact that AOC is actually pretty young yet, and she does need to turn 35 years old first, which I think she does before 2024. Still, I like Stacey a lot more.

lets hope to god not, she is toxic and her agenda is to further divide people.
