Yes, I so agree with you about Bernie. He was marginalized by the Democratic Party! Perhaps the leader we need now is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez! She has the smarts and the charisma to lead - and she's young! The Democrats are not even unified - Nancy Pelosi despises Alexandria and the Squad. First, the Party needs to unify! Maybe Buttigieg is better able to reach more Conservatives??

AOC has never, that I know of, said anything idiotic but has always called out the stupidity. I don’t know where we will be in 4 years but that’s the problem with all of politics now.
AOC has a hard-fighting personality, one that the Dems need in its leader. But she has been speaking for one slice of America and alienating many. Nancy Pelosi was and is shrewd in assessing political realities and is better at holding a large, disparate group together. She is sharp enough to modify her California liberal approach, if needed, including not campaigning on women's issues. If only she were young.
Agreed on this important point. AOC is fabulous in many directions - but needs to give up millimeters of plank to not alienate voters. This shouldn't be that hard. The alienation cost us the election. We also haven't done a good job of throwing jabs, sharp elbows. Messaging is just so milquetoast. I can't even figure out who's responsible for messaging. I don't need to knock on doors, I don't need to cover off on the phone banks. It's the messaging that needs help.
Kamala didn't offer what we needed. A little bit here and a little bit there weren't going to solve most people's important financial problems. She didn't have an inspiring platform, and the "joy" idea didn't connect with most people.
On the economic front - some crisp juxtaposition would be useful to break through the noise and lies: Column 1 - humpty dumpty, aka the orange turd - big red X; column 2 - Dems - big green check mark: student loans, health insurance, child tax credits..etc. As consumers we're already 'trained' to get it. Little need for spoken word to carry the message
Please 🙏🏻. We need Pelosi to retire as she's holding the Corporate Donors and corrupt Dems in their positions. She is fighting progressive candidates who don't take corporate donations more viciously than she does Republicans. Jessica Cisernos was winning over Henry Cuellar under criminal investigation and who's anti abortion and anti gun control when Pelosi dumped millions in last minute with smearing lying ads that couldn't be refuted in time. That's typical. I could talk about other similar examples.
I thought Pelosi did retire - but she's still influential. Maybe you could explain to me why she dislikes AOC and the Squad so much. What is so radical about them - about wanting to support the working class (which is most of the country)??

You guys missed Crusader Rabbit.
That's Ocasio-Cortez
Thank you.
