Independent Senator Bernie Sanders floated Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as a potential presidential candidate in the 2028 elections, saying that even though it’s “her decision to make,” she is a “very, very good politician.”

Speaking to Axios, Sanders said that he has been “out on the streets with her” and noticed how she responds when people come up to her. “It’s so incredibly genuine and open.”

Ocasio-Cortez is seemingly positioning herself to run for higher office, whether it is challenging Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for his seat or to make a run for president.

        Hey. Don’t talk to me unless you have a Scottish parent having immigrated at 9 years old, you have a 2 hour tan from Jamaica, and your accent is from Alabama. 🤣 🤣

        As summary just for you: if you can’t accept that people are different, you’ll have issues forever. If you see color where is none, you’re digging in to make your issues even worse and are looking for trouble.

            Only the downvoters are racists. When they choose to hate those who didn’t choose their fate, they lose.
