I’m all for a women president eventually, but perhaps the elections during an attempted fascist take over isn’t the time.

Some men will simply not vote for a woman, it’s sad, but it’s reality. If a woman is on the ballot the democrats will lose again.

The time will come, just not yet with stakes this high. I would love to see AOC as the first female president.

Attitudes like yours are why Democrats lose elections. We talk ourselves out of our best candidates. We try to compromise with Republicans right out the gate, and try to select the more moderate ‘electable’ candidate.

Your line of thinking got us Kerry, Clinton, and Biden.

Trying to select a candidate based on “electability” is bullshit, because you just end up selecting for the most uninspiring centrist who can’t get people to the polls.

Or in short, you have no damn idea what electability means.

You are wrong. This is literally the worst time to be offering up a “first time for…” candidate. The stakes are way too high to run that experiment. I love AOC and think she’d be a fine president, but at this time of hate and misogyny, she is too great a risk.

And how well has your strategy of “don’t rock the boat, don’t try anything new” been working out for you there, buddy? How many elections do we need to lose before you realize that you have crap instincts on what makes a candidate electable? In our current electoral landscape, the quickest way to lose an election is to be stupid enough to pick the “safe” candidate.

I think you may literally be insane. After all, what is insanity but repeating the same action again and again, but expecting a different result?

I think you personally don’t want a woman president, and you’re hiding behind concerns of electability because it’s not socially acceptable on lemjy to be an overt misogynist.

I’m not an American, imbecile. But, like many elsewhere in the world, I have watched the rise of racism and misogyny in the US, and if the Dems do not account for that, they will lose yet again. I think you personally have no clue at all, and that you may be a neurotic republican tradwife. After all, offering useless opinions that are plain wrong, hoping for your dream result whilst actually shooting yourself in the foot, is kinda insane, too. Read a newspaper, Mrs “Scientist” LOL.

Try learning how to spell Kamala, Ivan.
