Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez eyes potential 2028 presidential run
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is increasingly viewed as a potential contender for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination. While she has not officially announced a candidacy, she has remained non-committal regarding future ambitions, stating that 'everything is possible' when asked about 2028.
Political analysts and former advisors, such as Larry Cohen, suggest she may be the 'natural successor' to progressive leaders Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, as both are considered too old to run in the next cycle. Recent polling in New Hampshire has positioned her as a favorite among potential Democratic aspirants.
Ocasio-Cortez has also been active in touring the country with Bernie Sanders and has signaled an ideological shift by distancing herself from certain 'woke' cultural debates, while maintaining core economic progressive stances such as higher minimum wages, stronger unions, and increased taxes on the wealthy.
