Alexandria Ocasio Cortez.
You talk about smooooth, I mean Michelle and or Barrack SMOOOTH.
I just watched her on MSNBC, and this is Jackie O, JFK, Michelle, Barrack, Reagan, in a taco shell wrapped up in political YUMMY!
She oozes positive!

I look back at Reagan, and even his own son looks back at him and hates what he started. But Reagan was smooth. JFK was smooth. Obama was smooth. This lady is smooth.
Trump won acting like a despot pandering to fear. Cortez can win doing what JFK and Obama did.
This is the Taco we are looking for.

Interesting. However her expectations are not set in reality in my opinion. Nice to see a non-establishment person win in a place they were never supposed to win though even though I disagree with her on many things. I heard reports that the guy she ran against didn't even show up to the debates and instead sent someone else. What a jack ass.

Will be interesting to see where she goes from here. The old Eddie Murphy movie, "Distinguished Gentleman" comes to mind. They know how to deal with these bright eyed newbs.
It will take a lot to not be absorbed by the machine. I wish her luck. Hopefully, this kind of thing becomes a trend.

If Trump can win never holding public office. And if Obama can win only after a few years please.
And again, it isn't that liberals don't have the right ideas, WE DO. If our voters would participate like the GOP has for the past 30 years, in every election, I doubt you'd have a problem with the "establishment".
You cant expect much if you don't do much. The GOP in the past 30 years have held the majority of power of all three branches PRECISELY because their voters show up and liberal voters do not.
If your quarterback gets sacked on every other play, and your offensive line sucks, it is hard to expect even Obama to get things done. Even when we elect someone sane like Obama, he gets hamstrung because the voters don't vote in county, state and governors nationwide. If all we do is focus on national elections that does not help.
Grassroots is how the GOP wins, and that is how we can win.
She is proof that grassroots works.

I'm going to push back on your quote about grassroots helping the GOP win. What really pushes them towards victory is nothing but lies and conspiracies. And somehow this stupid country continues to elect them.

While beautiful, she looks like any Japanese overblown cartoon with the eyes. It is "Hello Kitty".
I cant tell if it is just the camera, her jeans or contacts.
And nobody go there, my x is Japanese.
I am not saying her eyes bother me because of race, but size only. No, here eyes don't dictate good or bad or economic policies. I simply noticed them thinking, "damn, the camera does make everything look larger."
She still is the Taco we are looking for.

Genes. And yeah, she has adorably big eyes. I'd hug her.
