Yeah, that would be the fight. AOC is the best chance we've got right now, and if she wins, we'll need to get more people in that are closer to her political stance, then we can choose the leftmost from there, and so on. It's not dissimilar to selecting for preferable traits across several breeding generations for crops and livestock, a notoriously slow and steady process.
