The poor simply want to stay poor. I dont think that is true..I think they are easily manipulated and ultimately betrayed... by those who purport to represent their interests, like in every large Democratic sh*thole city. After 5 generations of poverty , the Johnson doctrine of "I will end poverty in my lifetime". I look at public housing as slum lording. A campaign of No children before age 25, stay in school and be the first in your family to not rely on government would be a fresher approach. How about a campaign at the inner city... "Be a Man, Get Educated, Then be a Dad!" Oh wait... Id be called a racist.

In almost ALL districts in DC, there are NO republican candidates. NONE. They don't stand a chance. My city, Charlotte, after 23 years here, looks like it will be blue forever. The poor simply want to stay poor. Kansas has done exactly what you think they should with their conservative leadership and look what happened, look at some of the poorest states in the union they’re red as hell. Times have changed both parties don’t give a shit about their constituents. The Black community votes 95 percent ONE WAY. That is my point. Ignorance.

Lucky yes... at least in the Primary. And certainly opportunistic. She spent less than $200K vs her opponents $3.4 million in the primary. 75% of that was small donations. There were no debates, and she got key backing from MoveOn, Justice Democrats, BLM, Democracy for America - the usual backers of a uber-progressive option. She fit their criteria... a Hispanic woman, easy on the eyes, spouting the typical pie-in-the-sky rhetoric in a district of almost 700,000 people, that is 50% Hispanic. Less than 28K came out to vote in that primary. So she got super lucky, right place/right time, got the right backing, and didn't have a lot of money. Once she got the nomination, then the money rolled in as she became a media darling and Pancho Villa for the progressive masses, a younger, better looking, female version of Bernie Sanders. In the general election she raised 1.8 m dollars... but ran against a guy who raised $8000. Source: www.opensecrets.org/races/summary?cycle=2018&id=NY14Pappas mailed it in, like a number of other (R) candidates in the city. Its a waste of money for them to run against any (D) and notice the (R) primaries in those districts are usually one candidate running unopposed. Im a proponent of non-insiders getting elected, but I also value intelligence, and being able to back up what they say with facts. She doesn't pass that litmus test IMO. I agree she is in over her head, but the attacks on her are ruthless. Sarah Palin says hi. And at least Sarah ran a state before being in the spotlight. This commie was serving drinks. If AOC was a Republican she would get more skits on SNL than Trump does.

Let’s see if this chick actually serves her full term unlike Palin.

Ignorance is what both parties strive for from their constituents. You can’t ignore both parties have zero interest for the little guy, they don’t dump money into their campaigns.

She will be in Congress as long as she wants. She already has a strong brand and cult following. I see her running in 2030 (I think that is when she is age eligible). She wont win the general but can definitely win the nomination. I would like to see the Republicans run a hispanic RINO (to the left of Flake if need be) in the district just to see if they can unseat her but I think she will be there for 50 years.

None of us know enough to predict what she will do.

So you didn't agree with Palin being attacked and then you attack her. She left because they were attacking her and her family and the BS lawsuit against her would have driven her family to ruin.

Maybe you need to ask your caddy what’s going on or start listening to hip-hop nation on Siriusxm.

Attacking her by pointing out she didn’t finish her term as Governor? That’s a fact.

Billions spent to house people and box them up like cattle. We have them here in Charlotte as well. They are dangerous, you can;t walk through them at night if you are white. Call it what you want.... it is absolute government waste at it's finest. Plantation mentality of the DEM party.

Bring the country to 2010 spending levels.

You would, and any black person saying the same would be branded a kook, a traitor, an uncle Tom etc. as we have seen done to numerous black conservatives who are marginalized by the MSM and ridiculed (except for Fox of course). Until they realize the scope of their betrayal by the Dems.. spanning generations... nothing will change. And the Dems will rue the day they do.
