    Also Americans need to nominate people for candidacy. What stood out the most to me in Knock Down The House was that it was AOC’s brother in law that nominated her and the grass roots organization that vetted and asked her to run.

    I think a lot of competant leaders don’t run for office because they don’t believe they will even make it onto the ballot.
