      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’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.
