None of her "ideas" are tolerable to the majority of the country, like the Green New Deal. And she was the big proponent of saying "LatinX" which hurts us amongst the broader Hispanic population. She speaks well and articulates her views well, but that doesn't mea she should be the leader of the entire Democratic Party.
