General Discussion

...to believe there's anything that was/is going to get a woman, much less a black woman, elected president in this country. We've seen Hillary and Harris rejected in favor of a person who's a corrupt and ignorant inveterate liar. I continue to be amazed at how some people can't get their heads around the depth and breadth of bigotry and sexism in this country. AOC might have trouble getting elected to statewide office in New York, much less getting elected to the presidency.

There nothing new in the fact voters who favor Republicans have no use for Democrats who portray themselves as Republican-lite. The issue isn't there aren't Democrats who are ready to embrace the kinds of policies you'd hear about from an AOC, the issue of the leadership of the party knows their bread gets buttered by the same level of corporate overlords and ultra-rich that does it for the Republicans.
