Won't be AOC or anyone else in Congress.

Statistically, Congresspeople don't do well in Presidential runs. Legislative experience != executive experience.

Ford had been in Congress, resigned to become Vice President, then elevated to President

Nixon had been in Congress, then the Senate, then Vice President before becoming President.

Kennedy also went Congress to Senate to President.
