It's not like her ideas don't already have representation in the government. Bernie Sanders has very likeminded ideas and beliefs and he came pretty close to the presidency, and may again in the future.
Yes but Bernie is as old as sand and this young woman is far more likely to draw broader appeal and gather a bigger audience, youth(beauty>old for selling political ideas.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if in 2020 Sanders chooses her as his running mate.
While that would be a sight to see, especially with the outright insanity it would cause in the Cult of Trump. Not sure she can, she's only 28, in theory I think a VP has to be at least 35, in case something happens to the President and they need to be sworn in. Maybe I'm wrong and the 35 or older age restriction only matters if you're running for POTUS.

She's only 28? Wow, I thought she was older.

Would tend to agree, but look at the 2008 election. Sarah Palin boosted McCain's ratings initially, she didn't overshadow him, she was an attractive largely unknown women in politics running as his VP. Then she opened her mouth and her complete idiocy sank him.

See I can't take her seriously cuz she regurgitates the "women make 77 cents of every dollar" nonsense. Though on her site it is 78.And this the problem. She MAJORED in economics. She spews wage gap BS still.
She is either dumb or lying.
I don't agree with everything she says, I just want to see her splash (meaning make waves) in our govt. One thing that you clearly understand and 99% of the folks that use the internet understand is that when people in leadership positions say stupid things or things that aren't factual an "uprising" occurs to educate and counter said point. Which has a huge impact on our culture.

Eh but the wage gap lie has been repeated for years.

I think Alexandria is going to have the same problem soon if she doesn't reign in her public appearances and interviews.

Wage gap -

So there indeed is a gap and the MRAs are just going to have to deal with it.
