I have not listened to her speak.   I understand she self-describes as a kind of socialist.

Honestly, to me this is the same problem as Trump but the flip side: personality and surface perceptions over ideas and critical discussion and collaboration, candidate as product.... I find it to be a bad strategy for FOX & friends to vilify her. 

If a country is going to be this stupid, then their government needs to be redesigned so that the voting system mirrors the importance of American Idol.

god, I love it when someone from one country tells another how to reform itself.

I haven't listened to AOC speak before, either. I'll refrain from making any judgments for the moment, but do we have any links to some of her speeches? I could tell you what I have "heard" about her, but that's not exactly what one would call factual or fair. In a situation like this, it's hard to tell the truth with a polarizing figure (if indeed she is) because one side will always put her on a pedestal, the other, on a pedestal of dung.
