Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has traveled a long way since 2018.
When he first arrived at the political scene by winning not only a headline, but also a member of the leadership of his parties in a primary Democratic contest, he was a rebel, an avatar or insurgent impulses within Re coalition.
And, among Republicans, a kind of joke.
Now, she is the most popular elected official of the Democratic parties.
A survey by Yale University published this week discovered that among the Democrats, Ocasio-Cortez has the highest favorability rating of all the many possible potential presidential candidates of the party, 62%higher.
In addition, 41% of the same cohort said they have a “very favorable” opinion of progressive congresswoman, again, the greatest proportion to say like any Democrat.
And when asked who would support whether the 2028 democratic presidential primaries were held today, AOC finished a very strong second.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris, with 28%, was the only possible candidate to overcome it.
21% of Occasio-Cortez placed it very much or the bronze medista Pete Buttigieg, with 14%.
It is difficult to exagge how impression is a feat, especially, considering that the 35 -year -old New Yorker also had the second level name recognition in the survey, Beind, Solo Harris.
Only 11.7% of the survey democrats said they have not heard or have no opinion of it, which makes the excellent favorable rating even more impressive.
But wait, there is more.
Harris is a very, very soft front corridor, if it can be called like that.
The 2024 Democratic presidential candidate lost all the battlefield states against Donald Trump the past fall.
As Trump continues to facilitate the liberal teeth that he earns through his second term, anger towards Harris in his sad performance will only grow.
And so will the appetite of the Democrats for a broken fire like AOC, who can count on Sen. Bernie Sanders to throw all her weight behind her.
When one of Harris’s opponents at a stage of main debate asks why voters should trust it to win this Time nearby, what satisfactory response could produce?
She is already 0 by 2 on the path of the presidential campaign, since when Harris first was running for the presidency in 2020, it was spectacularly called.
With AOC well positioned to make a career in the Democratic nomination in 2028, without a doubt some Republicans will be verted to the perspective of facing this socialist self -described with demonstrated touches of champagne.
Rich Lowry national reviews have gone so far as to affirm that if she is the future of the parties, the Democrats have no possibility.
It is true that any competent Republican Party campaign will make a significant hay of AOC’s obvious vulnerabilities.
The specialty of Economics and International Relations of the University of Boston has been regularly ashamed on both issues.
His New Deal’s green package was so unpopular that he was mocked of existence.
It lacks any executive or managerial experience that persuadible voters claim to value in a candidate.
And Althegh has a talent to steal the headlines, they are the wrong ones.
His taste for the good life that dwells him at the gala with the gala (then the rigid designers on the bill) and taking first-class flights on the way to an anti-ligurate rally that undermines his message to the working class.
Like its tire defense of open edges.
But his potential opponents would not be prudent to underestimate her.
She only becomes constitutionally eligible for the oval office, but already has a national follow -up of worship that hangs in each word, since her mischievous field with Sanders this mononstructs.
The enthusiasm that inspires the left is combined only with what Trump evokes to the right.
“She is a rock star, Aoc”, a Kirsten Fleming fan of the post at a mythin in Idaho this week. “It’s like, Madonna and Aoc.”
That is not the only similarity between the current president and the woman who could very well compete for success.
While some positions of extreme left of Ocasio-Cortez, including its crusade of anti-fossil fuels and support for punitive tax rates will probably harm it in the surveys, it is more important than Americans Shepers a bold vision.
After all, not all the policies in which Trump campaigned has been popular on his own.
However, he has overcome voters’ reserves about them because they come as part of a larger and more coherent program that is everything but shy.
As Ronald Reagan said, the American electorate rewards those who have “unmistakable daring colors” instead of “pale cakes.”
AOC greets only one banner, and has more raw political talent in his pinky than the last three combined Democrats.
Seven years ago, she was a line line.
But at this time, she has as good opportunity as any of becoming our next president
