'National voice': Young Democrats want AOC to be president

After a whirlwind month that saw her crisscross the United States in support of Sen. Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is being called a ‘national voice’ by supporters who would like to see her become president one day.

“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a leader in the progressive movement,” Sanders campaign adviser Jeff Weaver told Politico. “She is broadly popular, frankly, among Democratic voters. She is particularly strong with young voters, voters of color. She’s an important national voice, and adding her weight to the political revolution is a real coup for us.”
