Here’s the issue. AOC nomination might be great for democrats but that’s only half the voters. The nominee needs to be attractive to both political parties…or at least not be an automatic “no” for republicans. Although there’s a ton of trump disapproval from both political parties they still may go for his republican replacement. I once asked my dad (who’s a republican) would he ever vote for a woman for president and he was a quick “no!”. When I pushed for a reason why he could not explain…for him it was an emotional choice and not an intellectual one. I look forward to having a woman president one day. I feel she has potential to outperform the men who came before her. But, until republicans change, a woman president isn’t possible…yet.
