Well, if you do agree with AOC’s positions, then you cannot be a supporter of our Constitution and federalism as summarized in Federalist No 45:
“The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected.
The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State.”
For example, and with respect to regulating abortions, I take it you reject our Constitution’s Tenth Amendment and each state and the people therein being free to adopt regulations, if any, regarding abortions. Is that correct?
I take it you also reject our Constitution’s Tenth Amendment when it comes to the personal needs of individuals such as healthcare, education, housing, etc., and you would have the federal government usurp authority over these objects without a delegation of power as outlined under Article V and required by our Constitution. Is that correct?
And what about our Constitution’s command requiring our federal government guaranteeing a “Republican Form of Government” and protecting each of the United States against “Invasion”? Do you support or reject this provision?
Seems to me that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a card-carrying member of the Democratic Socialists of America, is a threat to our very system of government. And you agree with her positions? Are you also affiliated with the Democratic Socialists of America?

Why is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez comfortable with filling New York City’s scarce public housing with illegal aliens when America’s needy Citizens, including U.S. Military Veterans, are going homeless?
