wait, the age requirement is 35? could've swore it was 70 nowadays 😂

People who voted for Trump would claim she’s “too inexperienced, ” which is pretty funny if you think about it

I would LOVE to see her debate a conservative…ANY conservative.

[jackily]

I live in Slovakia- basically Eastern Europe, very conservative country. And when we had female candidate for president, everyone, even more liberal voters were saying that our country "is not prepared for female president yet". Pls keep in mind that she has liberal opinions too, which she never hesitate to verbalize, never.
BUT
Miracle happened! Even the usually "conservative" voters voted for her because she was obviously the best in debates before election- calm, direct, etc.
And now we have her as president and she's awesome!
What I wanted to say, my friends from USA, never say never :) Miracles can happen!

Whether she runs or not, the Democratic Party desperately needs younger leaders at the top. I actually think Biden has done pretty well with the bad hand he was dealt, but Pelosi and Schumer need to go.

[johnjones_]

That is exactly how a congressperson who is planning on running, would answer that question. Too early to officially announce, and you don't want to challenge your party's sitting president in the middle of your reelection campaign.

[jussayin]

I'd be all for a President AOC, and I don't even live in the US.

[andrewjohnson]

Just want to say that I remember a young man called Barack Obama coming onto this show to thunderous applause and also playing coy as to whether they would run for President…

[ladyjatheist]

I really like that she answered the questions directly, citing historical examples of how checks and balances is supposed to work, and that the only question she worked around was about her own possible political future. Perhaps one day she will run for president, but until we clean up the nazi's and home grown terrorists... well let's just say THOSE are the jobs that need to be done right now!

[jellybellytelly]

I'm so happy she didn't say no. But she's right...you guys need to make sure there will even be an election in 2024 first.

[carolbenson]

Id definitely vote for her if she Biden needs to rest and spend time with his grandkids!

[gabesolomon]

I'm tired of being disappointed by the ineffectiveness of liberals who are my dad's age. I want to be disappointed by the ineffectiveness of a liberal who is close to my age.

[davidgordon]

They hate her for the same reasons that the wicked stepsisters hated Cinderella.

[Illjwamh]

I'll vote for her in a heartbeat if she ever does run, but I don't think she will in '24. She's still just getting started in congress and there's so much she can still accomplish there before moving to take on the big job.

AOC is a brilliant young woman who I can easily see as the first US female President.

[raymondsmith]

The last six years has shown us that there are a great number of wonderful young women serving in various roles of government, but not a great number of wonderful young men. It’s beyond time to get all the old farts, male and female, out of the government and let the young people take charge of what was once a democracy.

[mjc]

I would love to See AOC and Bernie run together, they would be unstoppable!

[dawnbell]

She would be a great president cause she knows her shit

[sopranophantomista]

You know what, if she doesn't run for president, that's completely fine! She's already become a figure that others can look up to and get involved in politics. That's nothing to sneeze at.
