which is, of course, that some politically savvy Puerto Ricans in Queens saw their chance and recruited AOC to be their standard-bearer A couple of things don't add up. First off, she appears to have little concern with the fat Congressional paycheck and benefits. If the official story were true, you'd expect she might. I mean, a bartender, right? Second, there seems to be a ton of money floating around that office. Campaign expenses, right? Third, she doesn't really look like she is Puerto Rican. To me, she looks more like an Iranian. Is there anyone on this site that doesn't know Fidel Castro is from the ancient Iranian nobility? Most of us have no idea of the kind of money stashed in the ancient empires -- Persia, Rome, Greece, Syria, Babylon. Nor, do people fully understand the depth of the craving for this real estate we occupy. Last, if she really knew, or cared, anything about racial matters, other than to exploit them for the benefit of whoever the hell she is working for, she would not have latched on to the epithet, "People of Color." Many people know that before the commies got a hold on the blacks, bent them out of shape, a "gentleman of color" signified high standing and high praise -- educated, cultured, well-read and well-spoken. No, my guess is that AOC, in spite of the last name, is another Barack Hussein Obama, and, as such, is deserving of close scrutiny.
