She had previously declared that she would run for President in 2020, until someone told her that there is a minimum age requirement for that job. (Thank you, Tom Jefferson, Ben Franklin, Sam Adams, et al.!!!)\u00a0 I believe she did change that timeline. She is bound and determined to have her way, regardless.<\/p>\n<p>She is the harbinger of social justice warriors mass produced by academia. This article is an eye-opener: <a href=\"https:\/\/amgreatness.com\/2019\/01\/12\/why-ocasio-cortez-cant-be-wrong\/\">https:\/\/amgreatness.com\/2019\/01\/12\/why-ocasio-cortez-cant-be-wrong\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cOcasio-Cortez is an ideologue. She can\u2019t \u201close\u201d and she is not humbled when she cannot answer a simple policy question or is abjectly wrong about a subject, because she thinks ideologically. Her answers, outlook, and attitude are predetermined absolutely, because they are all derivations of an ideology that is utterly shock-proof. There is no experiment, fact-check, or body of evidence potent enough to disarm her, plainly because a person who thinks ideologically will not be allow themselves to be refuted.\u201d &#8211; Article.\u00a0 My response to it is that she has not met opposing forces until now, and her &#8216;ideological&#8217; bent is and will be a major hindrance.<\/p>\n<p>What she expected was automatic support. It does not work that way. If you want support, you have to learn to listen to others, be willing to give them the support they are asking for on their projects, and hope that they will reciprocate for yours.\u00a0 You simply cannot run roughshod over people whose good will you may need, if you expect to succeed in reaching your goals.<\/p>\n<p>But by golly, That Girl&#8217;s on a roll here and nothin&#8217; &#8211; and I mean &#8220;NOTHING&#8221; &#8211; is gonna stop her!<\/p>\n<p>She has not done what she should have done to get her way. Instead, it appears that she went full tilt at everyone, including more moderate Democrats who are now wondering what kind of alliance she really represents. In addition, from the articles linked, she appears to have a Jekyll-Hyde personality, manifested by her friendliness when chatting up reporters and lawyers, but turning on people who oppose her in even a small way.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/story\/2019\/01\/11\/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-democrats-establisment-1093728\">https:\/\/www.politico.com\/story\/2019\/01\/11\/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-democrats-establisment-1093728<\/a><\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s just amazing, isn\u2019t she? The article at the link from WUWT is short, yes, but hits all the points necessary to understand what a dingbat and a spoiled brat is this one. Not having met her or being required to listen to her ranting, I\u2019m guessing that she has a habit of throwing tantrums to get what she wants and is as abrasive as coarse belt sander sandpaper when opposed. As it is, she seems to be pissing off senior members of the Democrat side of the Congress, a mistake that amateurs frequently make.<\/p>\n<p>This should indeed be an interesting time for all of us.
