Can’t elect competent accomplished geniuses because they’re young, but can elect near-death dementia patients.
Not saying AOC’s a genius, just that there are no qualifiers where a young person can lead the generation that will have to live with their consequences.
She was born October 13th, 1989. That means she’ll be 35 by the time of the election in November, not to mention before the inauguration in January (the date that actually matters). So, she’s definitely eligible.
No he’s right actually, you just have to be 35 to be president, not to get elected president. If AOC were the nominee and she won, she would definitely be president!
Her birthday is in late October. She’ll barely be 35 by the point of the election in November, but she will still be 35. So, she’d be 35 both when elected, and when inaugurated. It’s a non-issue.
Edit: I’m not a fan of either candidate but if we were to ever have a chance of more progressive leaders then we have to vote against the regressive leaders. I’ll pinch my nose and vote for Biden so that we have a chance of presidents like AOC in the future.
AOC 2028
Can’t we just annul the primaries and make it AOC/Omar 2024?
No, AOC cannot be president. She is currently 34 years of age

Needs to be at least 74.
And in 2028 like they said?
Viking specifically put 2024 in his comment.
And her 35th birthday is in October, making her eligible.
She’ll be 35 by the time of her inauguration, which makes her eligible.
That’s probably why OP said 2028.

Is there precedent to support this? I am genuinely interested.
The text of the constitution only mentions being 35 “to serve”. Nothing at all about that having to be true during the election.
Isn’t the precedent that time has never gone in reverse, and is unexpected to ever.
I was always under the impression that you had to be 35 to get on the ballot

This might be the only election I’ll actually vote in.
Too bad cuz we need you in nov
I don’t like either candidate. I couldn’t morally vote for either of them.
Then enjoy Trump.
Then you’re part of the problem.
Yikes. Such a sophomoric perspective.
