I was scared at first, too. Fascism won't go easily, but it is closing in and I wasn't sure 4 months would be enough time to rally behind a range of potentials. Biden is not my favorite politician and I don't agree with all of his policies, but he will always have my appreciation and love for the incredibly noble decision he made. Yes Biden is old, yes he speaks slower than he used to, but he always mixed up his words and no one can diagnose dementia based on one appearance when he had COVID. I'm glad he was able to get a bit of his own back when he gave a sharp, impassioned speech at the DNC this week. He still made the right choice for himself, his family, and his country, but he deserves to be remembered with love and respect. He had more faith in the American people than I did, and I'm so glad he was right. #voteblue

Have to commend AOC for giving way to Pelosi for the past couple of years. AOC will be one of the big movers of the next generation of leaders in Congress.
@@zainjal26 I was never a fan of "the Squad." I was always a fan of AOC though. She's the leader of the Squad anyway. Ilhan Omar is a bit too much on the Israel/Gaza issue. AOC though, she's going to be POTUS one day. Writing's on the wall. If you think she's getting voted out then you don't know how politics works.
@@johnshite4656Unfortunately, she’ll get voted out one way or another if the GOP’s billionaire friends have anything to say about it, and they do. This includes assassinations and rigging the house.
They haven't saved it yet. And they didn't save it in Germany in the 1930s. In fact they had orgasms when the Fuhrer would speak. And a majority of women actually voted for Agent Orange in 2016. So I will believe it when I see it.
3:15 AOC is one of the few politicians I’ve seen admit when they’re wrong. She seems like one of the few politicians who walks the walk. She’s the real deal.
I already liked her for her positivity, energy and natural beauty, but hearing that she's a Trekkie sealed the deal. I also watched Voyager (as well as TNG) as a kid with my family.
He will be ending his term as one of the best presidents in US history. That's how the historians will write about it. This is the kind of legacy the Republicans can't even comprehend. Biden pulled Big Brain Move on them and they've been left stunned ever since. This is why the fascists always lose in the end. They can't bring to the table that which pro-democracy freedom fighters can bring to the table. Fascists can never be patriots for this reason, they just don't have the required qualities.
It's just too bad he became president at such an advanced age. I will say, even as much as I despise Trump, I was never happy that we had 81 and 78 year-old candidates as our options. I knew Biden was in bad shape when that commercial of Joe asking people to donate had to be shot one line at a time (you could tell they cut after each line.) Even Trump is showing memory lapses. When both candidates are older than Reagan was when he left office (and he was starting to show the effects of aging), I hope we don't nominate candidates in their 70s again.
@@kimbradbury1998 Wow, she has fans around the world. That’s amazing. I’ve sat across the table with good friends here in the US who don’t like her at all. They think that she’s too radical. They poke fun at her saying that her qualifications for the (US representative) position was being a bartender. I responded that yes that’s true but it allowed her to speak with many people about their concerns. Anyway, there are many closed minded people here. I hope they see that even people from other countries recognize AOC’s intelligence, character and talent. Best wishes to you and your homeland.
@Mote78 people are going to be less receptive to politicians who make it clear that they don't need them. She has made it clear that she doesn't recognize or remember the women who came before her and paved the way, allowing her to be where she is. She's made it clear that she's dismissive of people over 45. So, hey, sis, if you don't need my vote, that's okay then. I'll give it to someone else
As a former Pizzeria Uno employee (NZ), hearing that AOC chant was sublime - signalling not just the death of Trumpism, but the rebirth of next generation politics instead of zero sum politics. Still facing big questions, like how many next generations there will be. And, have we left it too late as a species? But answering questions with knowledge not wilful ignorance.
i've read a lot about her, read her speeches, quotes and admire her enormously but actually seeing her on a talk show, and see ing how natural she is, how witty, how warm she is made me fall for her even more. she is beautiful in all senses of the word
I get the sentiment, but dont get too fixated with the Presidency, a lot more is done in "lower" instances of government and other institutions (school boards for example). I know the intent is good, but she has done allot in congress where the actual stuff gets decided, so in reality what you would want is more AOCs in congress.
@@Ketraar yes leading the legislative agenda someday. She has to leave New York though, and experience the broader country to round out her tremendous empathy.
Here's why I am voting for KAMALA: 1.Kamala's elimination of junk fees at the banks saves Americans $5.5 billion annually.💙 2. Kamala Harris reduced credit card late fees from $32 to $8.💙 3. Kamala's elimination of airline junk fees saves Americans $500 million annually. 4. Kamala reduced the price of 41 prescription medicines for low-income Americans and the elderly. 💙 5. Kamala provided health insurance to 20 million poor Americans who have never had medical care before.💙
plus..the elimination of student loans for so many..I paid a 35 thousand dollar loan for 20 years and still owed $9000…I had already paid that 35k off years ago..at this point it was just stealing from the bank, because of ambiguous interest rates, late fees, etc. and poof she made it disappear..what a relief. I will never vote Republican again.
I’m voting for her for the good start you’ve described, but for hope for our future. She and Walz embody that and have a plan to make it happen. But we need the legislature to finish the plan!
@@cs292 That whole student-loan thing was a scam against young people designed to control them in the wake of the Vietnam protests and, of course, to make money. It was sick and backward-looking and spiteful and, in my opinion, criminal. All of those loans should be expunged. Period.
You wont hear this often from Europeans, but AOC is probably your most valuable politician you have right now and she would easily be a welcome character in EU politics if she were from an EU country. Kudos lady Ocasio-Cortez. You have my utmost respect dear lady Ocasio-Cortez.
I must admit I too was worried about Biden stepping down and what the effects of the pressure for him to step down would be for the democratic party. I'm so happy I was wrong. Kamala Harris and Tim Walz 2024. AOC I love you young lady.
I was worried, too, and that was a very reasonable feeling. Just as AOC was saying back then, that it was risky and that she wasn't sure that the party would unite like that. She is a very honest and thoughtful woman.
Kamala Harris is terrible - she's part was of the cabal that ruined California. A few months ago she was one of the worst VPs we've ever had and now she's going to run the country??
8 yrs of Kamala and then 8 yrs of the Buttigieg - AOC ticket. that might get the USA back in the stability and good graces of the rest of the world. 19yrs a Colbert fan, in Australia.
@@wordpainting3we’ll see. Walz said he doesn’t want to be president in 8 years. Would be too old. Might change his mind. Either way it’s nice to have a bunch of inspiring and excellent options in our future leaders.
She was not born wise. Nobody is. Saying that, takes away all the hard work, all the education and all the struggles she had to win in order to get wise. Your statement is negating her and is sexist because it assumes that a woman can only be wise if she was born that way.
I think the thing I really like about her the most is that she is willing to admit she is wrong and learn from it. A trait missing by 99% of the planet. Plus you know, the right hates her because she is a women and intelligent often times more intelligent than they are. hahaha to me she is a Georgious Person inside and out. Her passion for what's right and her ability to speak to her voters is inspiring to me who isn't even American! In Canada we need more people like her.
I'm not a Democrat or an AOC fan, but I really appreciate how she recognizes that it is a lot easier for women to be in leadership positions then it was in the 90s, a lot of feminists don't recognize that and they act like women leaders are super rare.
I'm 61. I watched the original ST. And Lt. Uhura absolutely ROCKED my world! A WOMAN in the chain of command! She was in charge of communications, she translated everything going in and out of the ship. And occasionally she rode the hot seat, the captain's big chair. Plus she was a talented musician. A woman, doing ALL of that IN SPACE! It was only much later, as I got older, that I realized that she was a BLACK woman in the chain of command, in charge of a VERY important position on deck. Lt. Nyota Uhura BLEW my mind! Star Freedom!
As a super fan of Star Trek Voyager I am so happy Captain Janeway is mentioned. She was very inspiring to all people, women and men, as well.
My current favorite is Star Trek: Strange New Worlds!
Janeway was my childhood hero, I now wear my Voyager uniform with so much pride 😌❤️

I was scared at first, too. Fascism won't go easily, but it is closing in and I wasn't sure 4 months would be enough time to rally behind a range of potentials. Biden is not my favorite politician and I don't agree with all of his policies, but he will always have my appreciation and love for the incredibly noble decision he made. Yes Biden is old, yes he speaks slower than he used to, but he always mixed up his words and no one can diagnose dementia based on one appearance when he had COVID. I'm glad he was able to get a bit of his own back when he gave a sharp, impassioned speech at the DNC this week. He still made the right choice for himself, his family, and his country, but he deserves to be remembered with love and respect. He had more faith in the American people than I did, and I'm so glad he was right. #voteblue
AOC was working an angle on Biden. He didn't want to leave and sought her assistance and she extended a quid pro quo: she'll take to Instagram live and he'll forgive another round of student loan and attempt his rent control thing, both pieces of legislation have AOC written all over them!
@@em8066hard truths but necessary ❤️
@@em8066 very well said and spot on 👍 and I agree with you 💯 on everything that has happened in the past few weeks, we are fired up and ready to go, and when we fight we WIN! 💪

I am complete now.
She is so fun!😊 What a refreshing delight for our House of Representatives!😇🥰😍🤩💙💙This is history unfolding my fellow Americans! We got ourselves a revolution!💙💙💙💙💙💙American flag is proud once again 👏! And God damn it, it's still there regardless of Don dump!
I'm 65, and also grew up watching Star Trek with my father (but starting with the original series). For the last decade I've been torn apart by where this country and the world may be heading. With the current momentum that basic sanity and decency have finally regained, I am greatly relieved. But with the generation coming on the scene that AOC so ably reflects, I can now even hope that my childhood dreams may yet be fulfilled.
We are moving in an evolutionary star trek federation reality just taking a bit of time!!
I'm 78 and I couldn't agree with you more!!!
I'm 32, grew up with Voyager every single day of my life - I completely agree ❤
@@George-2115ok, the star trek memories were an aside, I get it now . I kinda want'd the comment to tie back around to star trek, somehow.. OH SHIT !! "Where ...the WORLD may be heading!!" There it is, I almost missed it!!

My 2 favorite people on Earth. Thank You both!
she is so well-spoken, witty, eloquent and smart and beautiful inside and out
Yes she is the real deal.
America's finest. With an emphasis on finest.
THANKS STEPHEN FOR GIVING US JOY EV NITE
Have to commend AOC for giving way to Pelosi for the past couple of years. AOC will be one of the big movers of the next generation of leaders in Congress.
I'm hoping she has three generations coming.
@@wisconsinfarmer4742her squad just lost 2 members. Omar is next. AOc after
@@zainjal26 I was never a fan of "the Squad." I was always a fan of AOC though. She's the leader of the Squad anyway. Ilhan Omar is a bit too much on the Israel/Gaza issue. AOC though, she's going to be POTUS one day. Writing's on the wall. If you think she's getting voted out then you don't know how politics works.
@@johnshite4656Unfortunately, she’ll get voted out one way or another if the GOP’s billionaire friends have anything to say about it, and they do.
This includes assassinations and rigging the house.
@@zainjal26 Wrong, reactionary fool.
Isn’t odd how women will save democracy I’m all in!

Not just women, it's also men, gay, straight, lesbian, queer... you name it. We do this together as one people: Out of many, we are one!
@@backpain100yes, but this is very much all lives matters content. Woman (namely Black woman) pushed Biden over the line
They haven't saved it yet. And they didn't save it in Germany in the 1930s. In fact they had orgasms when the Fuhrer would speak. And a majority of women actually voted for Agent Orange in 2016. So I will believe it when I see it.
They are almost always instrumental in revolutions as well - revolutions start when the women take to the streets...
Hopefully a future Madam President
Are you serious
I vote for her.
November can't get here fast enough. LIVE LONG AND PROSPER.
3:15 AOC is one of the few politicians I’ve seen admit when they’re wrong. She seems like one of the few politicians who walks the walk. She’s the real deal.
Man, AOC is a rockstar!
@@AlbPerNil no, u
AOC is the BEST of us. We're so fortunate to have her in Congress.
Yikes.
Love her or hate her, she has definitely shaken up the status quo.
@@ERAforALLShe’s also shaken a few drinks and needs to go back so she can stir them some more. She’s wasting so much talent in Congress.

@@blipco5 Yeah, I'm old school.
I already liked her for her positivity, energy and natural beauty, but hearing that she's a Trekkie sealed the deal. I also watched Voyager (as well as TNG) as a kid with my family.
AOC should be president one day.
Maybe she can be the second woman president in the future :)
LoL. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard
@@Dantana424 Not as dumb as supporting Trump. Lol
She will
Yes, President Joe Biden is a freakin’ hero. Much love and respect ❤
He will be ending his term as one of the best presidents in US history. That's how the historians will write about it. This is the kind of legacy the Republicans can't even comprehend. Biden pulled Big Brain Move on them and they've been left stunned ever since. This is why the fascists always lose in the end. They can't bring to the table that which pro-democracy freedom fighters can bring to the table. Fascists can never be patriots for this reason, they just don't have the required qualities.
There needs to be a formal tribute underscoring his quintessentially American humble generosity before he dies.
It's just too bad he became president at such an advanced age. I will say, even as much as I despise Trump, I was never happy that we had 81 and 78 year-old candidates as our options. I knew Biden was in bad shape when that commercial of Joe asking people to donate had to be shot one line at a time (you could tell they cut after each line.) Even Trump is showing memory lapses. When both candidates are older than Reagan was when he left office (and he was starting to show the effects of aging), I hope we don't nominate candidates in their 70s again.
@@jamesrawlins735 Yes the Joe Biden of the Obama era would have been something else. Just can not beat father time.
Yes. It should make you proud that he STOLE Top Secret Documents for 50 YEARS.
I hope to see AOC as president some day… the USA would be so much better for it.
I love her and she will have her time. Right now, it's Kamala's.
She will be , guaranteed
AOC is definitely a Fighter For The People and Beyond 🎉
Thank you for your Resilience 🗳️💙💙💙💙💙🇺🇸

She's one of my favourites and I'm Australian. Sweet and very smart, with a good heart.
@@kimbradbury1998
Wow, she has fans around the world. That’s amazing. I’ve sat across the table with good friends here in the US who don’t like her at all. They think that she’s too radical. They poke fun at her saying that her qualifications for the (US representative) position was being a bartender. I responded that yes that’s true but it allowed her to speak with many people about their concerns. Anyway, there are many closed minded people here. I hope they see that even people from other countries recognize AOC’s intelligence, character and talent. Best wishes to you and your homeland.
From South Australia...admire her heart and spirit. Hope she goes far in her political career. 💙
@Mote78 people are going to be less receptive to politicians who make it clear that they don't need them. She has made it clear that she doesn't recognize or remember the women who came before her and paved the way, allowing her to be where she is. She's made it clear that she's dismissive of people over 45. So, hey, sis, if you don't need my vote, that's okay then. I'll give it to someone else
We really like her here in Toronto, along with Sen. Bernie
AOC is a true superstar and an example for kids even here in Finland ❤
the world is poised
Thank you Finland
Doesn't Finland have a female Prime Minister?
Do your kids also think men can get pregnant?
The US could gain from emulating Finland's social healthiness.

"It ain't over 'til it's over." The Great Yogi Berra.
As a former Pizzeria Uno employee (NZ), hearing that AOC chant was sublime - signalling not just the death of Trumpism, but the rebirth of next generation politics instead of zero sum politics. Still facing big questions, like how many next generations there will be. And, have we left it too late as a species? But answering questions with knowledge not wilful ignorance.
You think this signals anything lmfao. In 2016 you same buffoons thought these late night shows mean anything.
After The Next Generation, there was Deep Space Nine, Voyager, Enterprise, ... 😂

This woman makes me feel feelings again.
i've read a lot about her, read her speeches, quotes and admire her enormously but actually seeing her on a talk show, and see ing how natural she is, how witty, how warm she is made me fall for her even more. she is beautiful in all senses of the word
AOC is brilliant. So glad to have her onboard!
Hope I live long enough to see a President AOC in the White House.
one day, her time will come too
keep thinking it,
and you will
a turning of the ages
I get the sentiment, but dont get too fixated with the Presidency, a lot more is done in "lower" instances of government and other institutions (school boards for example). I know the intent is good, but she has done allot in congress where the actual stuff gets decided, so in reality what you would want is more AOCs in congress.
@@Ketraar yes leading the legislative agenda someday. She has to leave New York though, and experience the broader country to round out her tremendous empathy.
Lmfao sweetie her squad just lost 2 members . She isn’t winning anything outside of the Bronx 😂
She looks like a star except she is much, much better - a leader of substance America is proud to have.
AOC is a liar and a sell-out.
So much excitement over a party that has gone full Peacemaker
Here's why I am voting for KAMALA: 1.Kamala's elimination of junk fees at the banks saves Americans $5.5 billion annually.💙
2. Kamala Harris reduced credit card late fees from $32 to $8.💙
3. Kamala's elimination of airline junk fees saves Americans $500 million annually.
4. Kamala reduced the price of 41 prescription medicines for low-income Americans and the elderly. 💙
5. Kamala provided health insurance to 20 million poor Americans who have never had medical care before.💙
these are the things Americans should hear more about
plus..the elimination of student loans for so many..I paid a 35 thousand dollar loan for 20 years and still owed $9000…I had already paid that 35k off years ago..at this point it was just stealing from the bank, because of ambiguous interest rates, late fees, etc. and poof she made it disappear..what a relief. I will never vote Republican again.
I’m voting for her for the good start you’ve described, but for hope for our future. She and Walz embody that and have a plan to make it happen. But we need the legislature to finish the plan!
@@cs292 That whole student-loan thing was a scam against young people designed to control them in the wake of the Vietnam protests and, of course, to make money. It was sick and backward-looking and spiteful and, in my opinion, criminal. All of those loans should be expunged. Period.
Wow that sure is a lot 😂
You wont hear this often from Europeans, but AOC is probably your most valuable politician you have right now and she would easily be a welcome character in EU politics if she were from an EU country. Kudos lady Ocasio-Cortez. You have my utmost respect dear lady Ocasio-Cortez.
She's terrific.
I must admit I too was worried about Biden stepping down and what the effects of the pressure for him to step down would be for the democratic party.
I'm so happy I was wrong.
Kamala Harris and Tim Walz 2024.
AOC I love you young lady.
I was worried, too, and that was a very reasonable feeling. Just as AOC was saying back then, that it was risky and that she wasn't sure that the party would unite like that. She is a very honest and thoughtful woman.
@@proud2bnumber1 YES.👍
Kamala Harris is terrible - she's part was of the cabal that ruined California. A few months ago she was one of the worst VPs we've ever had and now she's going to run the country??
A.O.C. is so ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
You sick bastard!! 🤣
I’m a total Voyager fan!!!💖🤩
My father also enjoyed Voyager, It reminded him of the original star trek since both caste were all alone in the final frontier.
I love you AOC! I’m a republican who can’t wait to vote for you for president. I wanted you to be our first female president but VP Harris will do.
8 yrs of Kamala and then
8 yrs of the Buttigieg - AOC ticket.
that might get the USA back in the stability and good graces of the rest of the world.
19yrs a Colbert fan, in Australia.
Walz will be 68.We can get 4 years from him in the middle of all that with Buttigieg as VP.
@@wordpainting3 transitional, weening in the next person, its a time tested proces!
@@wordpainting3we’ll see. Walz said he doesn’t want to be president in 8 years. Would be too old. Might change his mind. Either way it’s nice to have a bunch of inspiring and excellent options in our future leaders.

She is definitely who is an example, of more politicians like her! You go girl, thank you. What a beautiful young lady.
She was born wise.
The history of the earth has led to this.
Congratulations on all your hard work.
And thank you Joe.
She was not born wise. Nobody is. Saying that, takes away all the hard work, all the education and all the struggles she had to win in order to get wise. Your statement is negating her and is sexist because it assumes that a woman can only be wise if she was born that way.
Love this fearless Woman ❤
I think the thing I really like about her the most is that she is willing to admit she is wrong and learn from it. A trait missing by 99% of the planet. Plus you know, the right hates her because she is a women and intelligent often times more intelligent than they are. hahaha
to me she is a Georgious Person inside and out. Her passion for what's right and her ability to speak to her voters is inspiring to me who isn't even American! In Canada we need more people like her.
I'm not a Democrat or an AOC fan, but I really appreciate how she recognizes that it is a lot easier for women to be in leadership positions then it was in the 90s, a lot of feminists don't recognize that and they act like women leaders are super rare.
I'm 61. I watched the original ST. And Lt. Uhura absolutely ROCKED my world! A WOMAN in the chain of command! She was in charge of communications, she translated everything going in and out of the ship. And occasionally she rode the hot seat, the captain's big chair. Plus she was a talented musician. A woman, doing ALL of that IN SPACE!
It was only much later, as I got older, that I realized that she was a BLACK woman in the chain of command, in charge of a VERY important position on deck. Lt. Nyota Uhura BLEW my mind! Star Freedom!
AOC, one day being Madam President will be your title. 💙
