There seems to be a weird aversion to anything that can be seen as politics in America. So I think most of the general public there are not aware of the political ongoings so if and when they vote they see a male and female running they just vote in the male irregardless of who they are.
Happily, enthusiastically. I don’t think she’ll be the one to take it in 2028, though, and I’d rather not see her burn her political viability this early in her career.
I’d love to see her unseat Schmuck Schumer, and help Bernie cement the Progressive foundation in the Senate, the way she did in the House. She inspired many others to run for Congress, and now she can help them get a strong foothold on the Senate, too. That’s as important a job to the future of America as being president for a few years.
After she’s spent a decade or so in the Senate, perhaps as Senate Majority leader or some other leadership role, she should have the support of the voters to be President, and I think she’ll make a truly great one. Just give her time.
The problem, is that few others approach her in terms of credibility, and we can’t have another weak Democratic placeholder, just filling in long enough for voters to be convinced by a relentless flood of propaganda that they are really better off living in economic and social instability for their entire lives, so that the wealthy can be even more comfortable than they already are. That’s been the role of literally EVERY Democratic president since Carter. Not one of them did anything substantial to protect American citizens from a takeover by the nastiest organized criminals the world has to offer.
Part of the problem is a lack of information. It’s out there if you go digging for it but only if you go digging for it.
You need to introduce some media laws that restrict people from using the word “News” is any case but actual journalism. Also anyone who uses the phrase “alternative facts” should be executed, there are no such things as alternative facts, they’re called “lies”.
I get a lot of hate on Lemmy every time I post this, but I genuinely think American voters don’t like women.
Biden won as an old white man. Harris lost as a younger non-white non-man. Policy virtually the same.
It gets a little hard to deny.

Being “into” politics is seen as dorky because we have a bit of anti-intellectual problem.
NEEEERRRRDDD!!!
Touche
I’m American and I would vote for someone like AOC!
Same but you and I aren’t the problem!

I would too. Also someone like Newsome. I’d vote for a fucking garbage can over Trump.

No we’re not going to throw away the Constitution over reactionary nonsense like this.
I’m sure that it’s quite common worldwide. We’re probably missing out on a lot of competent people because of that.
