She's particularly young.
voice-verified
She pulled off a huge electoral upset when she got um first elected to Congress.
voice-verified
She was only twenty-eight.
voice-verified
She did it by defeating in a primary election a sitting um congressman who'd been in Congress for twenty years or so, one of the most powerful Democrats there was.
voice-verified
She knocked out in the primary and then went on to win the race.
voice-verified
She has always um been very open and paraded her working class roots.

And a waitress when she got elected, she came from a working class family.

She's also uh very glamorous, uh very um media friendly in that respect.

The camera loves her, so she's um always got a lot of attention.

voice-verified
For someone who can't put how she's feeling into words, that was a pretty well formed statement.
voice-verified
And that shows you just the kind of um polish that she has as well as quite a lot of charisma and why if you were gonna pick anybody from
voice-verified
um the democratic socialist movement or from the progressive left of the Democrats.
voice-verified
She's the the most obvious one I think to be thinking about if they're on a wave uh and potentially able to capture the nomination in twenty twenty eight.
voice-verified
Anthony, uh do you remember her first coming across your radar?
