I’m at a political science conference and can safely report that political scientists don’t really know what to make of @AOC, either. Derek Willis @derekwillis
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC is a phenom unlike any I can remember. Not only is she changing the Democratic Party, pulling it left, she is also changing the National Conversation or, as Bloomberg puts it: Thanks largely to her, the Overton Window on tax rates has just been moved significantly to the left, and she has been on the public stage less than a month. In the back of my mind, I am worried that she’ll flame out, but most of me
Meanwhile, her comment to tne tweet above:
I believe this is called a “paradigm-shift”

It’s wild and I really hope/fervently pray to myself that we are and that we succeed and do it well. With benefits that serve us and our world.
