No, he had a black Muslim African father, an active campaign to paint him as not-American (with a heavy subtext of not-white), and the middle name Hussein when trying to succeed the War on Terror president. And Republicans (including Trump) tried their damnedest to make that define him. And then Democrats won a supermajority.
Obama had way more to overcome, but all that stuff is irrelevant if you have charisma and a popular platform.
More left leaning than Obama. Centrists don’t like that.
Younger than any other elected president ever.
Is not quite as personable or charismatic as Obama. She can’t reach as many people.
She absolutely has more working against her than Obama. I don’t think you grasp just how many Americans simply won’t vote for a person with a vagina to be president. And in all the right geographical places to prevent it from happening.
None of that at all compares to being a black “non-American” “Muslim” post 9/11. And it’s irrelevant, because even thinking demographics is the guiding light for potential Democratic voters is just demonstrably untrue.
None of that matters if you’re charismatic and have a good platform that speaks to a brighter future. Those two traits are worlds more valuable than what all you hand wringers dredge up whenever the black man or the Hispanic woman start capturing people’s attention. We heard all the same things in 2008.
None of this is really about any of that, it’s all just #3. Obama and AOC both campaigned on moving left, so all the blather from centrists about civil rights and “the future is female” evaporates in an instant and they reveal they’re all just mini Steve Bannons looking for whatever naked bigotry they think can foreground to prevent progress.
America is much more open to a black man with a penis as president than ANY woman. And that black man with a penis had to be the most intelligent, personable, and charismatic black person with a penis ever to get elected.
Run the same losing strategy that has lost the last two times we’ve tried it and we’ll lose again. Simple as that.
Did you completely forget about 2 terms with Obama? Turn your head sideways and let the bong resin flow out of your ear. It might take some time
I forgot Obama was a woman and ran against Trump. Damn, I guess you’re right.

AOC is
A woman.
Not white.

Did you mean to say “sexist” instead of “racist”?
I’m saying it’s both.
OBAMA HAS A PENIS.
