[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We need to win in 2028, and that means being pragmatic.

Nobody from inside this insanely corrupt administration, no matter how uncomfortable they look sitting on the sofa in the Oval.

Nobody who has provided cover for this administration or stayed silent in the face of the corruption - which rules out pretty much every establishment Republican.

If this nation wouldn't elect Hillary or Kamala, it's not electing AOC either. We need a pragmatic candidate who is not deeply in bed with AIPAC. [/quote]

Says the fruitcake who puts two corporate owned politicians in the same bucket as AOC. You have a lot to learn about politics, my friend. AOC could not be more different politically than Harris or Clinton.[/quote]

I'm not a fruitcake, poster. I'm a nearly 60 year old American woman who has a PoliSci degree, a law degree, and decades of experience closely following and working in politics. I doubt very much you know more about how our political system works than I do. And you seem to be massively ignorant of the misogyny that prevails in our society and political system, even though it stares you in the face every single day in the news cycle. The USA is not ready to elect a woman, sad as that is. She could be so far out of the political establishment as to be from Venus, and our sick misogynistic patriarchal strangleheld society WOULD NOT ELECT HER.

Now I'm sure you can imagine what I'm wishing for you and your nastiness right now. Go dial up some porn and do it.[/quote]

Dp. Are you the one who also called AOC an airhead? Yeah, you’re likely not any of the things you claim to be. My guess is you are someone who’d like people to believe that AOC is ‘just not electable’. Why? Because she is the most dangerous to you. [/quote]

AOC is certainly no airhead. In fact, she is one our brightest members in Congress and one of the very few who hasn't sold out to mega-donors. [b]Her populist rhetoric is favored by a vast majority of Americans. [/b]Her problem is not electability. Her problem is nomination ability. A major party nomination of a true populist candidate is extraordinarily unlikely anytime soon because the ultra-wealthy entities in control of our political system will fight tooth and nail against the nomination of anyone threatening to close the wealth divide. We've seen how this plays out in recent elections. The money wins and the American people lose.[/quote]

Citation for the bolded?  Thanks.[/quote]

Common sense, Bernie Sanders popularity and noise made in the 2016 and 2020 primaries without the support of mega donors and the Dem establishment and Trump's 2016 victory while campaigning with a populist message. Paying attention to what is happening and what has happened combined with common sense is citation for some of us.[/quote]
