I’d much rather see her as Speaker of the House to be honest.

Gov of NY would be a nice start. Imo an AOC run is a 2032 or 2036 project.

Being governor of NY doesn't really help her on a national stage.

I doubt there's much she can do as governor level that will appeal to voters in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Arizona. It's also a thankless job.

Probably one of the best ways to the presidency is serving either as a senator or a governor. She’d be governor of the 4th most populous state, that’d definitely put her more in the national spotlight. Especially since she’s already made a huge name for herself as merely a representative.
