I mean aoc would be a pretty well known and liked pick imo.
She's not old enough according to the Constitution. Candidates running for presidency must be at least 35. She's 34.
She just needs to be 35 by the time of elections. Her birthday is in October. So your nitpick is kinda invalid.
From what I could find, she isn’t eligible to run until she is 35. https://www.usa.gov/requirements-for-presidential-candidates#:~:text=The%20U.S.%20Constitution%20states%20that,United%20States%20for%2014%20years
That says anyone who meets the requirements can declare their candidacy.
Tbf age restriction is BS if you can be senile why not be younger?
She's liked by progressives and some of the center, she would have a very hard time stacking up against other potential candidates in a scenario where Biden actually stepped aside or a conference coup happened.
Her best bet would be to hitch herself to one of the more progressive names being tossed around like Whitmer and parry executive staff experience into a run later in her career. What sort of cabinet position she'd actually consider vying for I haven't the faintest clue except maybe energy secretary since the GND was so thoroughly pinned to her and her and the Squad.
