She's obviously Bernie's heir apparent and will replace him as The Left Wing Democrat to come in 2nd in the primaries now that he's too old and she's old enough.
On a more optimistic note, a true heir to Bernie will know how to negotiate with the center left to accomplish some of their goals in exchange for the support of progressives to win elections.
Bernie is center left.
Bernie is consistently farther left than AOC. One example: she voted to break the rail strike. He voted against.
You're not wrong, AOC is certainly a stock liberal, however Sanders is center left. The US government is a right wing government with a right wing and far right party as the primary choices.
By American standards, I don't think that's true. If I'm wrong about that, that would be amazingly good news!
