What could AOC do now to win your vote in the future?

[lightbulb27]

Serious answers only. Any garbage gets deleted.

My answers:

She joins the US Military in some form.

Demonstrates vision for future

... not convinced she could win my support. But reality is, she won't have to do much to win a lot of young people, unless they get educated fast.

[Chazmatazz269]

Absolutely nothing. She is a complete moron; merely a mouthpiece of more influential people and organizations.
We’ve had enough puppets in positions of influence and authority. We’re well past due for people who actually think for themselves and LISTEN to their constituents before deciding on important issues.

[Miristheiss]

I am not in her district but there is nothing she could do.

Not unless she had a road to Damascus event and she changed all of her core values and she actually really learned common sense truths about issues instead of her ill informed agenda points.

[Anonymous]

If the presidential election was next year she could probably beat any Republican running. But since it's in 2028, Mandani will torpedo her chances after the world sees he can't even pull off free bus rides. No one will buy her bullshit after they see New York City fail.

[Chazmatazz269]

She’s a complete moron. She would make a fool of herself in the first debate and never be heard from again.

[OlderAndWiser]

We are well past the point of talking about it.

[OneViewpoint]

She could age a little and keep gaining experience while maintaining her passion and not getting burned out and cynical about what little shits most people are.

[lightbulb27]

agree. and start a business and make payroll, don't recall her having that experience. maybe buy a rental in nyc to gain experience?

@lightbulb27,

Did Cheeto Jesus join the military? He cheated his way out of it on 4 separate occasions. How many people in the House or Senate have ever served in the US military?

In the current 119th Congress (starting Jan 2025), there are approximately 98-100 military veterans across the U. S. House and Senate, with about 80 in the House and 18-20 in the Senate, reflecting roughly 18% of total members, a slight uptick from the previous Congress, with notable representation from Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines, including active reservists.

Serving in the military is a poor prerequisite for a political career. Understanding how government works, believing in the Constitution, and the courage to actually fix this shit pile the 1% have created for the 99% seems like a more important set of criteria.

[lightbulb27]

She can learn and grow by going into military. JD, Tulsi did.

[loveslongnails]

JD and Tulsi are not the examples you want to want to cite about being in the military. Tulsi is about as shady as Conosleezy Rice was, and JD isn't worth his salt. Hegseth also served, and look at what he turned into. When you enter the military with a screwed up head, you generally come out worse. Some don't, but those three? Forget it.

Sure, the military is a great way to maturity for a lot of young people. I know. I dealt with those kids for 15 years as their commanding officer. But it's not the only way people can grow and learn. I'd argue a career in the house and Senate require vastly different knowledge and experience. AOC has Cum Laude degrees in economics and international relations from Boston University. What she lacks is a law degree. But there are plenty of law school grads in the house and senate. I'm not sure driving a supply truck in the Army for 3 years would do much for a political career at that level. And AOC is not some 18 year old kid with no direction in life at this point.

[lightbulb27]

that's something, more than some others... not far from Biden starting. Cum Laude... she botched some tests... I was Summa Cum Laude!
I much prefer real world experience, running business, making payrolls, at least some knowledge of military. Agree, Governor, congress is a better platform.
Thank you for your service!
and before anyone says it, MTG wasn't in military either.

[OneViewpoint]

And look at what sort of leadership we saw from Maga Margie and Lauren "White Trash" Boebert. That hand job during a live theater performance while she was getting fingered by her boyfriend was pure class though.

Tom Cotton, JD Vance, Lindsey Graham... all White Trash embarrassments to the US military. Apparently moral growth eluded them in their military service but they found greed like a pack of starving bloodhounds.

Yes, a big hole in AOC's background is executive experience running large complex organizational hierarchies inside or outside of government. She's not gonna get that in the House or Senate. But if she never runs for President, she doesn't need it.

Eisenhower was a great example of bringing military executive knowledge and experience to the White House. Cheeto Jesus is a great example of bringing mental illness and complete chaos to the White House.

[lightbulb27]

Agree on Eisenhower. it's all relative.
AOC in charge of even a tug boat is a stretch...

[abc3643]

Well, I can't vote for her because I am not in her district.

Generally, I am supportive of much of her platform, but I do have problems with some of it. I know she's intelligent and passionate, and, one day after she has more experience, she might even be presidential. Unless, I saw a better candidate than her, I'd consider voting for her.

[Chazmatazz269]

If you think she’s intelligent, you know jack squat. She has said on camera some of the dumbest things any adult has ever said on camera as a sitting US representative. I guarantee that her IQ isn’t even in the triple digits. And yours is lower for jumping to ridiculous conclusions because you agree with her dumb*ss.

[abc3643]

@Chazmatazz269 She is intelligent. She's also passionate and young and those can be problematic with intelligence.

As for your attack on me, I consider it about as hurtful as a kindergartener calling me a "poopyhead". In other words, I really put no stock in what you say.

[lightbulb27]

she better go for it while young and pretty and we've got money to give away.

[Snakeyes7]

She would have to make a complete 180 to get me to support her, even then I would greatly hesitate.

[Sal_Monella]

Even from my MAGA perspective, she has the best displayed rack in Congress.

[Kaneki05]

Not be in the Epstein files though... actually to be a president of US that could be a requirement.

[DJB72]

If I was eligible to vote in the US I wouldn't vote for her if she was the only candidate.

[exitseven]

She coild change parties and support our President.

[lightbulb27]

Agree, she should take on representative to some island.

[exitseven]

I give her a lot of credit to get as far as she did because she really has not filed a single bill in congress and her most notable accomplishment was to chase Amazon and several thousand jobs out of her district.

[KostasKouvalis]

Convert to a moderate conservative and renounce the liberal party
I don't know what you consider a "garbage answer"

[loveslongnails]

Just run against any Republican, that's it.

[jahaims]

Lmfao

[lightbulb27]

have you met Mr Mandami yet? :-) doesn't take much to get votes other than talk and give things away...

[Friendlybro79]

Mamdani. Why can't people spell this simple name? Lol.

[lightbulb27]

@Friendlybro79 oh yea! because if you type it wrong, it still comes up... lol.

[Friendlybro79]

It's a conspiracy!

[lightbulb27]

@Friendlybro79 haha no, browse search figures out what it is.

[Friendlybro79]

Lol. Ok fine. I believe you.

[NathanDavis]

nothing... I don't vote

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Not a damn thing.

[beefcakebradybatson]

RUN !!!
