Attacks on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's working-class background reveal that in America, poor people are trapped by poverty and impossible double standards

What is her working career background?

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Unveils The Ugly Truth About Being Poor In America | HuffPost

The Cons on this board have bashed her for being a waitress.

No. B/c she's the poster-girl for what the DEMs have let themselves become.
Enjoy her and the chaos she'll bring to your party.
I forgot. When is she going to be "inaugurated"?
When she runs for President in two years you all will have to explain there's lots of 'White houses' in Washington but only one where she can live rent free.

I am enjoying the chaos, but this is my part...Libertarian Party Do try and keep up with the facts.

When she runs for POTUS in a few years she can join the ranks of idiots like Michelle Bachmann that ran for POTUS.

getting the right wing to stop eschewing capitalism at every capital opportunity could be considered analogous to a landing on the Moon; since they much prefer their socialism on a national basis.

I doubt she was a waitress very long. How was her college paid for?

Here is her life story for you, since you are so interested...

Ocasio-Cortez was born in The Bronx, New York City, on October 13, 1989, to Blanca Ocasio-Cortez (née Cortez) and Sergio Ocasio.[15] Her father, an architect of Puerto Rican descent, was born in the Bronx, while her mother was born in Puerto Rico.[16][17] Until age five, Ocasio-Cortez lived with her family in an apartment in the neighborhood of Parkchester.[17] The family then moved to a house in Yorktown Heights, a suburb in Westchester County.[17] Growing up, Ocasio-Cortez regularly visited her extended family in the Bronx.[18]

Ocasio-Cortez attended Yorktown High School, graduating in 2007,[19] where she won second prize in the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair with a microbiology research project on the effect of antioxidantson C. elegans' lifespan.[20] As a result, the International Astronomical Union named a small asteroid after her: 23238 Ocasio-Cortez.[21][22] In high school, she took part in the National Hispanic Institute's Lorenzo de Zavala (LDZ) Youth Legislative Session. She later became the LDZ Secretary of State while she attended Boston University. Ocasio-Cortez had a John F. Lopez Fellowship.[23] In 2008, while Ocasio-Cortez was a sophomore at Boston University, her father died of lung cancer.[24][25] During college, she was an intern in the immigration office of U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy.[26] She graduated cum laude from Boston University's College of Arts and Sciences in 2011 with a bachelor's degree in international relations and a minor in economics.[23][27][28]

Ocasio-Cortez has described her background as working-class, and relates many of her political positions to it. When her father died intestate of lung cancer in 2008,[29] she became involved in a long probate battle to settle his estate. She has said that the experience helped her learn "firsthand how attorneys appointed by the court to administer an estate can enrich themselves at the expense of the families struggling to make sense of the bureaucracy".[30]

Early career[edit]
After college, Ocasio-Cortez moved back to the Bronx, while she worked as a bartender in Manhattan and as a waitress in a taqueria. Her mother, meanwhile, cleaned houses and drove school buses. After her father's death, Ocasio-Cortez and her mother struggled to fight foreclosure of their home.[31][32] With financial backing from Sunshine Bronx Business Incubator, she established a publishing firm, Brook Avenue Press, which specializes in children's literature that portrays the Bronx in a positive light.[33] She worked as lead educational strategist at GAGEis, Inc.[34] Ocasio-Cortez was also an educator at the nonprofit National Hispanic Institute,[35] in which role she served as the Educational Director of the 2017 Northeast Collegiate World Series, where she participated in a panel on Latino leadership.[23]

In the 2016 primary, Ocasio-Cortez worked as an organizer for Bernie Sanders's 2016 presidential campaign.[36] After the general election, she traveled across America by car, visiting places such as Flint, Michigan, and Standing Rock, and speaking to people affected by the human rights violations related to the Flint water crisis and the Dakota Access Pipeline.[37] In an interview she recalled her visit to Standing Rock as a tipping point, saying that before that, she had felt that the only way to effectively run for office was if you had access to wealth, social influence, and power. But her visit to North Dakota, where she saw others "putting their whole lives and everything that they had on the line for the protection of their community", inspired her to begin to work for her own community.[38]

Wow, she's really smart. I bet she's smarter than Dr. Ben Carson, huh.

Moon landing was an actual achievement, that is, it was a triumph of the country for greatness. We were the first to populate a other celestial body.

Ocasio Cortez's victory on the other hand.... a great landmark towards turning the country into a shithole.

Funny as shit how you snowflakes are so threatened by a young, bright, progressive Latina who got elected while waiting tables and wants to actually do things to make peoples lives better.

Cortez: We went to the moon. We established civil rights. I won my election.

we can already vision "The Genius Cortez" at one of those "Miss Dumbfounded USA" pagents. Alexandria "I personally believe, that summa, ah, U.S. Americans, that like, live on this planet, earth? planet earth? right?,,anyway, I believe that we will have a better USA if all of us US Americans all have maps, so that like we can all find the way to our local grocers, our gas stations, our liquer stores, our local pimp houses and even directions to our jobs",,,that way, all of us U.S Americans will have a lot more free time to watch R rated movies on HBO and more time to go to the bathroom.

are so threatened by a young, bright, progressive Latina

Young bright progressive? Then you wonder why we refer to you people as the Uninformed Voters?

 

[Uncensored2008]

She made no such comparison.

You might be a fucking liar, but hey, you're as stupid as Che Guevara Barbie....


"We've done what we thought was impossible," she told the gathered crowd. "We went to the moon. We electrified the nation. We established civil rights. We enfranchised the country. We dug deep and we did it. We did it, when no one else thought that we could. That's what we did when so many of us won an election this year. That's what so many of us did."

You dumb fucking commie.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Anyone else detect just how fucking scared the Trump cult membership is about how the times "they-are-a-changing" ???......................LOL

Yeah, scared - that's it comrade

 

[LeeOnLido]

u ask Cortez how long it would take a corvette to drive to the moon doing 100 MPH, odds are she will answer "ah,,hmm,,,I would guess about 3 or 4 hours?"

 

[eagle1462010]

Is it safe to come out now.....Heard Cortez is around...........

 

[Uncensored2008]

I knew Cortez would be a gift to Republicans.

She is a gift to you rubes...one more person living rent free in your heads.

This level of obsession with someone not even in Congress yet is entertaining as hell to witness.

Poor Meandering Marxist, you are SO DESPERATE for normals to take Che Guevara Barbie seriously. She is the future of your party and represents what it is to be a democrat. Hey, and she matches your intellectual prowess....

Shitflinger is making USMB troll again...

You mad bro?

Hell no, watching you sheep obsesses over her is better than watching the real housewives of wherever. The drama and IQ are on about the same level.

She's a gift alright...a comedy of errors and she's one of yours

She is a Libertarian? I do not think so.

She is much closer to you seeing as you are far to the left of me

DERP

Libertarian? You?

You follow other great libertarians like Mao, Stalin, and Hitler....

Moon Bat.

The locals all were the same.

 

[Uncensored2008]

You really need to give that up. You're a left loon...everyone sees it in your posts

Yeah, but ThinkProgress told Meandering Marxist that if he didn't pretend to be conservative, no one would take him seriously..

Jake Starky
Right Winger
G5000 (Gunno)
et al.

The line of leftist lying that they are really conservatives is long here.

 

[Uncensored2008]

The only thing that scares me is, there are that many stupid people who voted for her. Which proves, liberalism is a mental disorder.

Here, tax your half brain a bit......

Cortez may be a bit looney........BUT, you fuckheads actually reelected INDICTED crooks like Chris Collins and Duncan Hunter......

Now you may bitch about electing a dizzy head....but what the fuck is the matter with you in supporting CROOKS who don't give a shit about anything but themselves???

IDIOTS.........LOL

Oh, well you Communists would never do that... Bob Menendez....

 

[Uncensored2008]

Yup............and you guys own comedy central...............gonna be a hoot...........

The retards that get their news from Comedy Central elected Che Guevara Barbie..

Coincidence? I think not..

 

[Uncensored2008]

In the last week there have been no less than 20 threads at least about her by the Trump sheep...and she has not even taken the oath of office yet.

Really? So when did Sarah Palin take office?

Never did...but thanks for proving one more time how alike both the left and right wing are.

Two sides of the same coin....or is it two wings of the same bird.

Yeah, and I bet you never made one comment while they bashed Palin; not only before they lost the election, but years afterwards.

I laughed at them too, I rather enjoy the vantage point of not being a party sheep! I can laugh at both sides and not get in trouble!

So Meandering Marxist, do you think you are as big of a hack as RDean? Or do you still have to hone your skills?
