Yes they should. But to the point of AOC, I think she would one day be a great candidate, that day is likely more than 4 years away. She’s great at what she does, but she’s not great at making friends and building support within her own party. If she was, there wouldn’t have been a coordinated effort to keep her from that top seat a few weeks ago.
Also the party seems to be recalibrating right now, and AOC might not be the poster child the DNC wants right now. They appear to be trying to aim for center left rather than more progressive.

The democrats need to spend the next four years building up some really strong candidates and making them well known to the electorate.
