AOC/Walz or Walz/AOC. They would make a killer team.
Putting a woman at the top of the ticket again would definitely be a way to show them, "hey we are willing to walk into the same trap as many times as it takes to prove our point about equality."
Not enough women think a woman should be president to make the idea viable, and that's not my fault.
Which woman matters.
I find it funny, that you still buy into this narrative. Most western countries and many countries were women are considered to be discriminated more than in western countries had women leading governments. This includes far right parties such as in Italy.
Neither Hillary nor Harris lost because they were women. They lost because they had political positions driving away progressives and presented themselves in an uncharismatic and "high-and mighty" way that alienated the conservative bases they tried pondering to. If you want to win you have to at least pretend to care about normal people, not belittle them.
