In reply to the discussion: Ocasio Cortez is a uniter, not a divider [View all]you are new here. Get used to it.
I think she is wonderful, exciting and she makes me hopeful.

She seems to have a history of fighting the right fights as an activist and social organizer.

I probably would've voted for Joe Crowley if I was in that district; now I support Ocasio-Cortez.
