I am a 68 year old white female who sports a pin made by Zena West (WestArtAndGlass.com) that states: "I've got 99 problems and white heteronormative patriarchy is basically all of them." This pretty much sums it up for me and I am heartened by AOC's good-natured patience with the Democrats. May she (we) hang in there and not give up.

Yes, it’s time to seriously rebuild the party with younger leaders. Do you remember how a youthful John Kennedy inspired our nation? His Presidency was transformative in inspiring the younger generation.

No kidding we need younger members to take on leadership roles. Apparently the Dems learned nothing when Feinstein died in office.

I am 63 yrs and was a registered Democrat my entire voting life until 4 days ago when the Democratic Party voted for a 75 yr old white man over a highly qualified, well respected, intelligent AOC. (Sounds like Kamala to me) I am done defending or supporting the Democratic party. I officially quit. Done.
