“Not usually, but most of the day, people act in their own self-interest. ”
The above quotation is our card through the space-time range — the Deere we’ll travel to take a sneak-peak at Election Day 2028, as we play Carnac the Magnificent. And it works … about 75 % of the time.

Alas, the prospect is resolutely oblivious to the intentions of today. People are generally repetitive, but black swan events also happen. Every now and then, a scholar in Wuhan may be dissecting owls and forget to wash her hands. Or a social conversation in Butler, Penn. may be disrupted with shots. Life is mad.
It’ll always be entirely predictable.
There’s a Yiddish saying, “Der mentsch tracht us gott lacht”: “Man ideas, and God laughs. ”
But I’m no guaranteeing that this will occur. It’s entirely possible that life will throw us another Koufax-style ball, flipping the prospect on its part. And it ’s also possible that we’re misreading the participant: Perhaps this Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez person is perfectly content where she is — in a “safe space ” Democratic district that’ll rubber-stamp her reelection bids — allowing her to play “House” for the next 30 or 40 years. ( It’s a little girl’s dream come true! )
But I don’t believe thus.
Most of the time, when one runs for parliament — and win! — while still in his or her forties, it ’s a terrible lot more good they’re more optimistic than your typical bear. There’s an ancient prank in D. C. : Every legislator that ’s always been elected dogcatcher has a collar in his wardrobe that he’s arranging on wearing to his political opening.

And this takes us to AOC.
This year, poll and/or prognosticator Nate Silver made stories by translation AOC the pioneer for the Democrat Party’s 2028 presidential election.
Of course, we predicted the same thing a month back. And we stood by it— frequently, also.
Here’s how she wins:
Her first move is to acquire the Bernie Sanders nationwide network of communist activists. Vermont’s most prominent elderly ran for president double; in the process, he built a coast-to-coast databases. The DNC does n’t individual it; it belongs to Sanders.
He dedicated himself to communism, and his prize — his greatest legacy — is being a frontrunner.
( Or, in this case, a queenmaker. )
AOC does n’t attention what liberals or reformers think. No however. We’re illusory in the short-term.
Her greatest harm is another Democrat running to her remaining.
Forget about the correct or center. She can’t let anyone else out-liberal her! In the 2028 Democratic primaries, the candidate that ’s perceived as being the “champion ” of leftists will have the highest basement.
Certainly the highest sky, because her ability to attract non-liberals is still an open question. Individuals like Bill Clinton were high-ceiling: there was a natural way for great ol’ Billy Jefferson from Arkansas to get over slews of politicians.

AOC’s course is more muddled.
But her floor is HUGE! ( Which sounds like a twin innuendo, but I don’t mean it that way. ) In a crowded discipline of seven-plus wannabes, her room alone was give her a variety.
And she would n’t had to move the furniture for very long.
In the past, the DNC would march its assets behind its “preferred ” candidate, either by pressuring the dead mass to student, or through trickery with its strangely corrupt system of electors. It’s how Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden cleared out the industry.
Under the old method, if an unwanted member such as an AOC got very damned close to the sun, the DNC had collaborate and strengthen. They’d do “Hollywood accounting ” with the delegate count. They’d narrow the voters ’ options. And later, they’d find a way to raise the establishment’s option. ( To the noisy, loud shouts of the popular media, of course. )
It’s no that way again. The average flap of the DNC has been discredited and destroyed; they no longer occur. Now, David Hogg, the vice chair of the DNC, is spending$ 20 million to end the careers of incumbent DEMOCRATS.
“Our center is craving extraordinary change, ” Hogg said. “We need to present our foundation we’re these to fight for them. We need to present that are younger eyes stepping up. ” [emphasis added ]

The DNC won’t been coming to save the average aircraft again. The opposite is true: they’re coming to kill it.
Read between the lines: Who is the youthful face stepping away? For whom is Hogg greasing the vehicle?
Of all the applicants on the left side of the hall, AOC’s journey to the election is the easiest. It’s hardly yet 2026 already, and her route has already been cleared.
Generally, I mean.
Robert Burns perhaps did n’t understand he was channeling a Yiddish saying when he wrote, “The best-laid plans of mice and people often go astray. ” But, you never know … until you do.
Hope springs immortal. Content Easter.
