I never really knew much about AOC, except that the right hate her. Now I see why. She's relentless, ambitious, and extremely smart. She's the rights greatest fear, and now I like her more than ever.
@@skyhorseflying There are people in this country that have been living in blindness for months, years, a lifetime. No amount of explanation on RUclips is going to make you suddenly see the truth. You have to do that for yourself... or you can continue living in blindness. Your decision to make, not mine. And definitely not my responsibility.
@Akash Jacob If you feel so strongly about it then what are you doing here? Oh right, all talk no action. RUclips is crooked but you're still here using their services. Brilliant! 👏 👏
When Amy said "This [phone] is a commodity. My daughter's life wasn't." it sounded familiar and I just remembered that AOC used it in a speech (I think it was about the enormous price of insulin). It's incredible how these women draw power and strength from each other and I'm so glad I'm alive to see it.
I come back to watch this documentary once in a while. I'm not even from the US, but these people, these women, they inspire me to be brave and be the change for my country like they are for theirs.
@@slowpainful How brainwashed or brain broken are you to think that these commie establishment shills care anything about America. They HATE our country.
My cousin is a young single mother. Because of AOC, she is running for a council seat on the Indian Reserve she lives on. This is inspiration. This is how people change the world. Hooray!
UPDATE: My cousin won her seat on council. She is having her own AOC moment as we speak. Hell yeah. Thank You Alexandria, changing the world one underdog woman at a time!!!
Bernie Sanders campaign will go down in history as a generational shift in America's history/trajectory. AOC is proof of that power. She is going to be a lightning rod for my generation, and she is giving us hope. Its incredible and so moving to watch.
Its a shame she is fighting for such an evil cause that has never succeeded in any country it has been attempted in, and has resulted in the deaths of millions of innocent people.
When AOC was speaking about her father's death, I felt her pain squeezing my heart. I was in my early 30's when my parents died, and it was devastating..
I truly felt identified and teared up watching AOC's path to congress. She truly deserves this and I'm so proud to see a strong Latina woman take on those in power.
Pascho what makes Anna Paulina Luna a true Latina, which honestly I didn’t know about her and AOC not even when we see her being iconic and fighting for the people’s rights at Capital Hill
I am hoping that Francisco Frnaco smith3 is saying to stay there so you don't have to needlessly endure the hell that morons created here. Otherwise, I have other things we could all say by interpreting those words in other ways. These women have stories that can definitely inspire anyone! Get out and fight!
@@carimavandijk1091 --- And it is much cheaper to get into. Of course, you have to pay high taxes. But, if you go to an Ivy League university be prepared to pay an exorbitant amount of tuition for a prestigious education. I know a few friends who went to the Ivy Leagues and they are financially broke from their student loan debt. Meanwhile, I know one person who studied abroad at McGill University in Canada and he is making a decent living as an accountant. The bottom line is that attending an Ivy League school may no longer be worth the cost and the energy as well because these universities accept a modicum of high achieving students.
@@123ucr oh yeah definitely cheaper, I pay around a little over 1000 a year, and around 800 for the books so the first year was almost 2000 euros... compare that to ivy league schools 😬😬. And also a lot easier to get in, you just need to have the right diploma, and they let you in. Some (not schools but idk how it's called in english, "opleidingen" is how it's called here, just the bundle of courses over the years to get a diploma) do have a selection to get into but alot of them select with a lottery so not really only the people with the highest grades
I would like to see Amy Vilela run again. She had a strong platform and NO ONE in AMERICA should die because of lack of Health Insurance. NO ONE!! Also don't miss out on Katie Porter she's a beast in congress.
As a teenage activist and current Gen Z, all of these powerful independent women are such inspirational people. I can’t wait until my generation is able to vote and change the world. I’m only 16, already itching to vote for any of these beautiful women if they ever run for presidency.

@Edd 1 maybe you should have a stance that motivates people to vote. Then you could actually have inspiring stories of people winning to be made into documentaries.
@Edd 1 Uhm no. From the viewpoint of any other country in the world, democrats would be centered slightly right of the middle, while the Sanders&AOC faction is slightly futher left of the middle. Your refinement of speech and insult already tells most about you. Next thing you'll tell us is animal documentaries being greenish and left wing environmental protection propaganda? What is your point?
@Edd 1 What I seriously, genuinely don't get is how you think liberals are 'trash'. They literally want humans to have rights, they want to save the world from climate change, they want medicare for all. And I don't understand why anyone is mad at them for it. They seriously just want humans to live in an equal, safe society, a society that cares about all people, not just rich or white or male or whatever.
Alex's whole story had me SOBBING. (Especially the ending, when she was talking about her father. That made me a wreck.) I don't think I've ever loved and admired another human being more than I do her. Between watching her adorable reactions to people on the streets praising her, and the way she listens to and wants the best for her people, I have come to look up to her so much. I honestly wish I could be best friends with her. Some of my favorite scenes were the moments right before the polls closed when she was nervous about the outcome, and when she was telling security "that's me on the screen!" so she could get into the bar. Not to mention, MAD chills when her face popped up on the screen and everyone started screaming. At that moment, my heart was bursting. Part of the reason why I love Alex so much is because I see her in me. She makes me feel empowered, like I can accomplish anything. And for that, I owe her everything. Alex, by the slim chance that you're reading this, I love you. Keep fighting for what's right, I've always got your back, girl.

This woman was passing out flyers on the street, and being ignored and rejected. Now, she's one of the most powerful women in the country. Very inspiring!
I just love how Netflix just put all this documentaries out and let people be educated in current affairs, and also not turning off the comments of the videos too, it's really nice reading all the supportive comments on the documentaries.
It’s not educational. It’s propaganda! The spin I’ve seen on their documentaries is full of lies, half truths & propaganda! It’s truly sad that people will watch, listen & believe these lies without doing their own research. Garbage!
I'm not even American, I knew she was going to win, but when Alexandria came up as the primary winner I was nearly in tears. That's somebody who's going to make change, i can feel her passion, and her energy, I believe she's going to hold to her word and make change, and she's shown it already.
i know, even though it was two years ago and i've seen the video of her standing in the bar before, something was different about it after watching the whole journey she took to get there.

True story. I used to go to flat fix where AOC worked and she used to tell my friends and I that she was running for Congress and we thought she was BSing us. She was super nice and very intelligent but we still doubted her. A lesson I have learned from this. A) don’t judge someone cause of their job or position. B) don’t let anyone tell you can’t achieve what you want in life.
Doesn't surprise me at all. I think I know her motivation (largely thanks to this movie) ... how does a waitress even attempt to get into Congress? (out of a severe sense of injustice - like your dad dies, and vultures circle your home taking pictures ... plus, you're extremely intelligent with an asteroid named after you because you placed in the top three of a national High School science competition ... [hehe]) They don't - you were right to doubt her! She's got to be the President. She would restore dignity to the office, and to the USA.

But they are doing it illegally. But there are the worst of the worst mingling amongst them. When they flood in it allows complete criminals and or drug couriers to easily get here and then hide and they run amok brutalizing our citizens! Look even if she were a nice person at heart she’s trying to implement communist policies and tactics which all the men in my family fought in the military to stop.

They make they’re cops weak which in turn puts they’re lives in serious danger!they are all unAmerican and she leads the pathetic pack! So take that!
Sure there’s times where all politicians get there facts wrong, getting fact checked is the right thing to do regardless if you’re left or right party... but you cannot tell me for one second AOC doesn’t follow a moral compass. Regardless of her political platform, she uses her platform to stand for minorities and she’s so young. Her ambition in equality is empowering.
@@stars8324 That is pure whatabouthism. You claim she is so clean and idealistic. Then why she can't pay her tax? Why she is above the law? Law only for others not for her? It is just pure bigotry, "rich do not pay taxes". Then why she is not?
From only watching short videos of AOC, I never really understood who she was or what she stood for but was intrigued by her energy as she spoke. This documentary made me cry my eyes out when watching her journey to change. Seeing how motivated she was I understand why she came out victorious and will continue to do so in the future. So happy that she got what she truly deserves! Very inspiring! GO AOC!
Cori Bush just won the primary and AOC is now the most popular face of change. Thank you Netflix for letting people watch these inspiring women's stories for free.
The most memorable scene to me is when AOC compares her pamphlet with that of her rival. And when she has to convince security to let her enter her own election party.
@Staypuft🤍 Except for every country with single payer Healthcare. Go north and ask a Canadian if they would trade their Marxist Healthcare for the US capitalist one.
56:03 Wow. I am 19 and I had the exact same thing as Amy Vilela's daughter, a blood clot in my vein, a few months ago. But because I live in Germany, I went to the emergency center the evening it happened, had all possible tests done: blood test, ultra sonic, x ray, etc. Got presciption to medication immediately and got made a plan of what i should do and which doctors I should meet next. It got all done IMMEDIATELY and without a single thought spent on financing. In Germany, we dont need to worry about financing because our insurance covers nearly all of it, the only thing in the foreground is curing our issue. Even jobless and homeless people are ensured to have health insurance. And all the examinations and the medication were nearly FREE for me. Because I live in Germany I am cured a few months later and because she lived in the U.S. she is now dead. 😶 And the USA have the audacity to call themselves land of the free, in what way do they ensure more opportunities/freedom/human rights to people?
@oh no a German has no right to be a critic of the USA. They caused more deaths in the last hundred years than in the entire history of the western world combined. You can add all deaths Stalin committed to that also because they created a power vacuum of most of territory conquered and then lost to the Russians. Over 200 million lives lost because of Germany in ww1 and ww2. They would have waged more wars if the US and Russia not been so powerful.

If im not wrong she was the one who said she isn't paid much (150K $+ a year by the way) Ps: she is the one who said it was cool to steal groceries stores if you are hungry. Can she get more stupid?😂 The only reason she is successful is because she is a woman and plays the victim, and all you do is portray her like a strong woman... You are not strong just because you are a women, and you aren't smart just because you're a man. There are dumb man like there are Dumb women like AOC!!

@@waterratje1326 in America people will rather die than be taken by ambulance. Where I am from, poverty is normal. Choosing which meds you can afford to take and which week you'll chance your life on is just an acceptable risk. Recently my neighbor died due to her untreated diabetes. She had to choose insulin or groceries. She kept gambling every week. Eventually the risks cost her life. When you say, "As a European..." to many of us Americans.... the concept that you take for granted sounds like a lie. For how can a country afford you such luxuries? How can you not be killed or consumed by a system like our own? What makes you special? We Americans deserve the same but far too few can imagine that a reality.... Hopefully one day we can. On that day... maybe we will make America as "socialist" as your country.
@@jalicea1650 I'm from the Netherlands and here it isn't a huge problem (healthcare wise) if you are poor. People have to have a basic insurance here so they have a minimum coverage so they can buy medication and go to the doctor or hospital. If you are poor you get additional allowances so that you can pay for those medication and insurance. What I meant was that for me it is weird that people in the USA (a country that is so developed) there isn't a system that takes care of people who are having trouble getting a job or who can't even get a job because they're injured. For me I take it for granted that I have a health insurance and that I get an allowance if I don't have enough income. I know I shouldn't because there are so many countries who don't have this kind of system. However, I'd think that a country like the USA, a country that's one of the most developed ones here, would have a system like that. Btw, I don't mean my replies to be offence in any way what so ever, so if you feel offended, my apologies

@craig ike Yes, I'm an American. I'm a former state prosecutor from Virginia and I have participated in campaigns. She got donor interest once her campaign picked up steam and momentum. That's what happens. Democratic Socialist doesn't mean she doesn't take donations to run a campaign. Its not like being a Franciscan monk. You can educate yourself on how campaigns begin, how they are financed, and how they run. Even watching this video will give you more of an idea than you seem to have based on your questions/comments.
I'm Canadian and just found out who she was a couple of weeks ago, when she called out Congressmen Yoho and was instantly proud of a stranger, having watched a couple of clips of her speaking out, I had seen the trailer for this, so it was really great to see her journey not knowing anything about her other than she's one badass woman, who I admire and am inspired by, she gives me hope and really lets me know there are good people out there fighting the good fight, keep it up AOC!

I was literally shedding tears when AOC won while watching this video. I'm from a small town in NC..mostly conservative...and her passion for people, her community is what congressmen and congresswomen should be about. Thank you AOC..thank you for your courage to stand up for the people, not only for your district, but for us all. You give me hope that voting does matter and we can change the world. ACO for president!!!!
The ending with Ocasio and her boyfriend hugging, talking about her father and just riding those scooters was bitter sweet. It made me shed some tears. I am proud of her and I am sure her father is also proud of her.

I didn't know the whole story of how she got to Washington, but it's obvious that she is keeping her promise to the 14th District and they made the absolute right decision to elect her to represent them. In her short time in Congress, she's done more than many career politicians like Ted Yoho who are in it for themselves. I just wish more politicians were running for the right reasons and had integrity like AOC, Paula Jean, Cori and Amy.

"The reason why is because nobody else would...so literally anybody could, right? because the alternative is no one." hit me hard.

AOC is such a kind and smart woman. Very upright, she is a great person. Of course I don’t know her in real life and often your “face” on camera and around others is different, but I can see her genuine smile some times and how she tries her hardest to be kind to other people.
I never knew the story of alexandria ocasio cortez until i watched this.... and by the end of it, it had be crying actual tears! Her ambition and determination has moved me, such an inspiration.
@Loki the sly one Even if that's true, who she a puppet to? She's a puppet to her beliefs? They obviously saw something in her, and she qualified. The justice Democrats run on the exact same platform she believes in. Being a puppet is being paid by corporate money for corporate interest, and going against your own beliefs. Not even close to the same at all. .
@Loki the sly one I watched it twice. Your point? Where the actual rebuttal. I didn't say what you said wasn't true, but it litterly changes nothing. She wasn't just picked out of thin air, and she's obviously qualified.
@Loki the sly one Guess if they would've chosen a white guy he would've deserved it, but not her. Being a puppet is being a sell out to your beliefs, she believes in the same beliefs as the justice Democrats. Very weak argument.
@Loki the sly one I know all about the justice dems. She wasn't randomly picked, she was nominated , then considered because of her community work and not selling out for a job or corporation. She got the job that 10,000 people applied for, not 3 people . And no video link was posted, we don't need people like Trump or Biden in office, but more people like the justice Dems , Bernie Sanders and other progressives who aren't owned by corporations. Every civilized country in the world has universal healthcare except America, puppets don't that as a top priority.
@anita - Well said! Most of those hidden gems will stay hidden due to the wackiness of the political stage. That doesn't mean those hidden gems can't be involved behind the scenes. Talented people of good character should be encouraged to get involved.
being born and raised in bronx this movie makes me so emotional. My father an immigrant from dominican republic who passed away in 2017 had such passion for the American dream.This also hits different now seeing what she's become in 2020.♥️ What an inspiration.
Stay strong ❤️. I've never lost someone so close to me so I can't even imagine what you had to go through. We need to keep supporting politicians like her who can actually make a change in society. Glad you liked the documentary
It's strange that the people you think are far left are centric here in Switzerland. And believe me we are a capitalist country but also we believe in social security.
People in the USA have either a spartan, social darwinism mindset (I think Trump falls in that category), or they put themselves entirely in God's hands.
By American standards, you guys are basically the Soviets. Besides America also believes in social security. They paid banks and big corporations billions. Nothing says free market economics by shoving billions down the throat of zombie corps.

"Stay in her own country" you mean American? You mean the United States? Did you watch the documentary she was born in New York. How is the green new deal a hoax? Please educate yourself before spewing nonsense. The only thing you gave me was opinion none of what you said was fact.
One of the great spectacular events I've watched in my life time and is up there with all those other great moments in time. Please ladies all of you stand up and take a bow for fighting the hard fight for what is right for all of us and not for just the few. Your struggles while treading the path trodden by many over the years is an inspiration to the many in your desire to seek out justice and righteousness for all is heart warming. May all that did not make it rest easy in knowing that so many out there are grateful knowing that you all were prepared to stick your heads above the parapets without big financial backing and dear to tell the establishment to go get stuffed, yes one big in their faces. Love you all and please don't give up the fight cause someone has to do it.

I don't know why; I can't put my finger on it... but something feels like Joe Crowley was genuinely pleased when he debated AOC. I watched the whole national debate live. Even he couldn't resist her conviction, passion and debate skills. Maybe he was just ready to be done with the job and was happy to see someone competent take him on. Maybe it was both. I could be wrong, but I don't think I am.
@@StrokerAce3983 she is an icon you don't like but an icon nonetheless. I knew she would be before the election and I'm in Scotland. You're just salty. LOL
She got me with her story of her and her father standing before the white house when she was a little girl and her father telling her that the government buildings belonged to her. I was moved to tears...
I judged her big time (thanks to Fox News) and that’s why I am so ashamed of myself after watching this. More power to her and other people who take on the establishment. Heart goes out to other 3 who lost 😢

Winner-take-all state electoral college agreements could hand the election to Trump, again. If you agree on the idea of *one-person one-vote,* we need states to pass a law for ECs to elect the winner of the national popular vote. Look up *National Popular Vote Interstate Compact* and contact your state reps to pass it! Especially if you're in a swing state. We're almost there!

When Amy said "This [phone] is a commodity. My daughter's life wasn't." it sounded familiar and I just remembered that AOC used it in a speech (I think it was about the enormous price of insulin). It's incredible how these women draw power and strength from each other and I'm so glad I'm alive to see it.

"For every 10 rejections, you get one acceptance. And thats how you win everything"
This is like getting into an Ivy League university. You have to work very very hard to get in.
@@123ucr oh what do I love not living in the usa because every university here is on the level of ivy leages in education
@@carimavandijk1091 --- And it is much cheaper to get into. Of course, you have to pay high taxes. But, if you go to an Ivy League university be prepared to pay an exorbitant amount of tuition for a prestigious education. I know a few friends who went to the Ivy Leagues and they are financially broke from their student loan debt. Meanwhile, I know one person who studied abroad at McGill University in Canada and he is making a decent living as an accountant. The bottom line is that attending an Ivy League school may no longer be worth the cost and the energy as well because these universities accept a modicum of high achieving students.
@@123ucr oh yeah definitely cheaper, I pay around a little over 1000 a year, and around 800 for the books so the first year was almost 2000 euros... compare that to ivy league schools 😬😬. And also a lot easier to get in, you just need to have the right diploma, and they let you in. Some (not schools but idk how it's called in english, "opleidingen" is how it's called here, just the bundle of courses over the years to get a diploma) do have a selection to get into but alot of them select with a lottery so not really only the people with the highest grades
I would like to see Amy Vilela run again. She had a strong platform and NO ONE in AMERICA should die because of lack of Health Insurance. NO ONE!! Also don't miss out on Katie Porter she's a beast in congress.

She serve the country better when she was a waitress
can we just recognize that Netflix gave a whole documentary for free bc how important this election is
@Edd 1 maybe you should have a stance that motivates people to vote. Then you could actually have inspiring stories of people winning to be made into documentaries.
@Edd 1 Uhm no. From the viewpoint of any other country in the world, democrats would be centered slightly right of the middle, while the Sanders&AOC faction is slightly futher left of the middle. Your refinement of speech and insult already tells most about you.
Next thing you'll tell us is animal documentaries being greenish and left wing environmental protection propaganda? What is your point?
@Edd 1 What I seriously, genuinely don't get is how you think liberals are 'trash'. They literally want humans to have rights, they want to save the world from climate change, they want medicare for all. And I don't understand why anyone is mad at them for it. They seriously just want humans to live in an equal, safe society, a society that cares about all people, not just rich or white or male or whatever.

Alex's whole story had me SOBBING. (Especially the ending, when she was talking about her father. That made me a wreck.) I don't think I've ever loved and admired another human being more than I do her. Between watching her adorable reactions to people on the streets praising her, and the way she listens to and wants the best for her people, I have come to look up to her so much. I honestly wish I could be best friends with her. Some of my favorite scenes were the moments right before the polls closed when she was nervous about the outcome, and when she was telling security "that's me on the screen!" so she could get into the bar. Not to mention, MAD chills when her face popped up on the screen and everyone started screaming. At that moment, my heart was bursting. Part of the reason why I love Alex so much is because I see her in me. She makes me feel empowered, like I can accomplish anything. And for that, I owe her everything. Alex, by the slim chance that you're reading this, I love you. Keep fighting for what's right, I've always got your back, girl.

Sure there’s times where all politicians get there facts wrong, getting fact checked is the right thing to do regardless if you’re left or right party... but you cannot tell me for one second AOC doesn’t follow a moral compass. Regardless of her political platform, she uses her platform to stand for minorities and she’s so young. Her ambition in equality is empowering.
I agree, people can argue that they don't agree with AOC's ideas but no one can argue that she doesn't have ambition, passion, and human compassion

From only watching short videos of AOC, I never really understood who she was or what she stood for but was intrigued by her energy as she spoke. This documentary made me cry my eyes out when watching her journey to change. Seeing how motivated she was I understand why she came out victorious and will continue to do so in the future. So happy that she got what she truly deserves! Very inspiring! GO AOC!

Cori Bush just won the primary and AOC is now the most popular face of change. Thank you Netflix for letting people watch these inspiring women's stories for free.
The most memorable scene to me is when AOC compares her pamphlet with that of her rival. And when she has to convince security to let her enter her own election party.

56:03 Wow. I am 19 and I had the exact same thing as Amy Vilela's daughter, a blood clot in my vein, a few months ago. But because I live in Germany, I went to the emergency center the evening it happened, had all possible tests done: blood test, ultra sonic, x ray, etc. Got presciption to medication immediately and got made a plan of what i should do and which doctors I should meet next. It got all done IMMEDIATELY and without a single thought spent on financing. In Germany, we dont need to worry about financing because our insurance covers nearly all of it, the only thing in the foreground is curing our issue. Even jobless and homeless people are ensured to have health insurance.
And all the examinations and the medication were nearly FREE for me.
Because I live in Germany I am cured a few months later and because she lived in the U.S. she is now dead. 😶 And the USA have the audacity to call themselves land of the free, in what way do they ensure more opportunities/freedom/human rights to people?
@oh no a German has no right to be a critic of the USA. They caused more deaths in the last hundred years than in the entire history of the western world combined. You can add all deaths Stalin committed to that also because they created a power vacuum of most of territory conquered and then lost to the Russians. Over 200 million lives lost because of Germany in ww1 and ww2. They would have waged more wars if the US and Russia not been so powerful.

For me as an European it's so weird to hear something like this... I can't believe there isn't a proper healthcare and health insurance system...
@@waterratje1326 in America people will rather die than be taken by ambulance. Where I am from, poverty is normal. Choosing which meds you can afford to take and which week you'll chance your life on is just an acceptable risk. Recently my neighbor died due to her untreated diabetes. She had to choose insulin or groceries. She kept gambling every week. Eventually the risks cost her life. When you say, "As a European..." to many of us Americans.... the concept that you take for granted sounds like a lie. For how can a country afford you such luxuries? How can you not be killed or consumed by a system like our own? What makes you special? We Americans deserve the same but far too few can imagine that a reality.... Hopefully one day we can. On that day... maybe we will make America as "socialist" as your country.
@@jalicea1650 I'm from the Netherlands and here it isn't a huge problem (healthcare wise) if you are poor. People have to have a basic insurance here so they have a minimum coverage so they can buy medication and go to the doctor or hospital. If you are poor you get additional allowances so that you can pay for those medication and insurance.
What I meant was that for me it is weird that people in the USA (a country that is so developed) there isn't a system that takes care of people who are having trouble getting a job or who can't even get a job because they're injured.
For me I take it for granted that I have a health insurance and that I get an allowance if I don't have enough income. I know I shouldn't because there are so many countries who don't have this kind of system. However, I'd think that a country like the USA, a country that's one of the most developed ones here, would have a system like that.

Let's make sure we win big and get Joe on our side.
They did?!? Cool
For each 100 they reject you have 1 who accept...
Never lose the faith in you.
I'm happy. You deserve.
Now it's up with you to change and "TURN THE HOUSE UPSIDE DOWN" 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Mário Soares 💯
@Santiago Bron Shut up, ancap douchebag.
"For every 10 rejections you get 1 acceptance.. and that is how you win everything" just wow.. AOC is amazing.. 21:00
This is proof that she really was a waitress, and had experience applying for jobs. For every 100 applications, you may have one call-back. Love her! What a role model.
On a serious note she is not amazing at all. She is a pandering corrupt politician. The quality of your leadership just keeps getting worse!
@@AlbowaSinema LOL.....FOX NEWS MUCH?!
@@AlbowaSinema Maybe, maybe not - usually all politics are somewhat skewed, but measuring by the standards set by Trump and Mr. McConnell (so called leadership examples) I think we can all agree she is an angel.
That's cause its worthless
AOC: In order for one of us to make it through, 100 of us have to try
Lo and behold, she was that one who actually made it through! So proud of her!
The transition from AOC doing her politics and then going straight to the bar to work is so powerful, with out even thinking i've totally forgotten that everyday ordinary people can just work their way into politics. it's not just given theres a chance.
craig ike thats gonna be a no from me chief
Get a grip you sycophant
@craig ike Did you watch the documentary? She started with $200. The money came later.....after the work.
@craig ike Please post cite. You can't, because you lie. I'll wait......
@craig ike Yes, I'm an American. I'm a former state prosecutor from Virginia and I have participated in campaigns. She got donor interest once her campaign picked up steam and momentum. That's what happens. Democratic Socialist doesn't mean she doesn't take donations to run a campaign. Its not like being a Franciscan monk. You can educate yourself on how campaigns begin, how they are financed, and how they run. Even watching this video will give you more of an idea than you seem to have based on your questions/comments.
I'm Canadian and just found out who she was a couple of weeks ago, when she called out Congressmen Yoho and was instantly proud of a stranger, having watched a couple of clips of her speaking out, I had seen the trailer for this, so it was really great to see her journey not knowing anything about her other than she's one badass woman, who I admire and am inspired by, she gives me hope and really lets me know there are good people out there fighting the good fight, keep it up AOC!
@@clara-ye9jm how are you Clara, you made a comment claiming AOC wants people in Congress to make 147k per month. Can you please provide a Link to her making that comment? I don't think that is accurate information.
@@clara-ye9jm 147k a month would be $1.75 million a year.
I personally thinks she deserves that - but that's not what either her or you meant, is it?

@@jazzx251 that’s 100 times the salary of the president congress shouldn’t be a career but a privilege.

No much idea of USA system but I trully believe this year should have had been bernie year. Democrats need 2 candidates so people can really choose one. 'Cause not even republicans whant mr orange...
Roger Kid You do know that there is countries like Finland, Sweden, Denmark etc. that have socialist policies like free healthcare and free colleges right? Why do we only look at countries like North Korea (which btw is far from what socialism really is) and China?

The purpose of hope is for us to continue to be free, and to become more free through our actions and our increasing connectedness.
this movie really humanized her and made me like this woman.
I was literally shedding tears when AOC won while watching this video. I'm from a small town in NC..mostly conservative...and her passion for people, her community is what congressmen and congresswomen should be about. Thank you AOC..thank you for your courage to stand up for the people, not only for your district, but for us all. You give me hope that voting does matter and we can change the world. ACO for president!!!!
I think you meant to say AOC but yeah
The ending with Ocasio and her boyfriend hugging, talking about her father and just riding those scooters was bitter sweet. It made me shed some tears. I am proud of her and I am sure her father is also proud of her.
The fact that AOC took the time to learn Arabic or at least try is so heartwarming.
@Jason B Exaggerated posture with ruler straight back makes you look fake and gay
@Jason B She looks normal and singing with her body. Ruler straight back looks like a saleswoman.
@Glenn Everett and you are just an idiot... Which is way more pathetic
@Glenn Everett How so? She has worked hard to fulfill the promises she said. She has become a very influential candidate in just two years.
and bengali. They're not noticed much but she learnt how to talk in it (even the tinniest bit) means so much. Its crazy tho that no one knows about Bangladesh bc Bangladesh is the most densely-populated with 1,252 people per square kilometer; this is almost three times as dense as its neighbour, India which has over a billion people. like damn can ppl put some respect on her name
“I’m the only one running for Congress in this room” won AOC her seat.
Wow she went from getting Ice for that same bar, to watching herself win an election on the other side of the bar. Just beautiful, beautiful

The bar scene still makes me tear. When there is hope there is resilience! Keep fighting the good fight America!
same, i had chills from that scene and i just felt so empowered. i honestly don't know what i did to deserve the literal greatest role model ever.
This is my favorite film of all time. I cry every time I watch it, and I’ve watched it at least a couple dozen times.
I've seen this so many times, and yet it never gets old...
I'm so proud of the working class labor movement sweeping the country this year. 🙌🏽💪🏽
Thank God Labour will never get in thanks to boring , dried out Kier Starmer !
Also, they're the party who want little children to evaluate what gender they want to be . Labour endorses Gay marriage which God has forbidden.
Tune back to Him and read his Word, and you will find the path. you should be on !
It breaks my heart that only one of the incredible people we followed made it. But it's like AOC said, "For one of us to succeed, a hundred of us have to try." 😢
Paula Jean won recently!
Tamsyn Roberts Happy to see this❤️
@@manu2519 I was so happy too. She's so passionate, and deserves to be able to actually change things
AOC belongs selling jewelry on QVC
@@tamsynroberts4860 I mean, she won the primary, she's going to get annihilated in the general election because Democrats can't win anymore in West Virginia other than Joe Manchin, and even he is only getting by these days.
I watched this after hearing AOC's response on the Congressional Floor to Congressman Yoho's non-apology for his unacceptable language and behavior. I didn't know the whole story of how she got to Washington, but it's obvious that she is keeping her promise to the 14th District and they made the absolute right decision to elect her to represent them. In her short time in Congress, she's done more than many career politicians like Ted Yoho who are in it for themselves. I just wish more politicians were running for the right reasons and had integrity like AOC, Paula Jean, Cori and Amy.
@Nick Hamill 😫 wow you dont get it
@Nick Hamill Let her constituents decide. If she is not representing them, then they can vote her out.
@Nick Hamill She just won her primary by over 50 points, sorry.
Also she a member of the FEDERAL government. That means she is there to represent her district in matters of NATIONAL importance, not rule on matters going on in her own district.
She has NO say in what happens in her own district, her job is be her districts voice in national matters.
I'm sorry you didn't know that.
Ex0dus111 thats interesting, could of swore she just spoke about defunding nypd in NY which effects her district where crime has spiked like crazy. Must of been a dream, I’m sorry you did not know that.
@@getreal2210 Crime goes up with poverty rates. And AOC SUPPORTS defunding the police, as would anyone with half a brain, but unless there's a federal bill she can vote on, she has no say in getting it done.

@@rankedskywars Considering what we witnessed this week by the traitors in Washington i.e Trump and his sycophant supporters who tried to usurp our government. Anything can happen especially since 10-20 years is a long time and many of us Americans are sick and tired of status quo presidential candidates.
@@jalicea1650 yeah but you have to appeal to both sides of the aisle because of the electoral college, and the places worth more are typically right leaning. but i mean since the new generations keep getting more and more progressive only time will tell. but
@@rankedskywars The issue that's not going to be so black and white come 2040. By 2030s we are going to be a very different country demographically and most states will be majority minority ethnic background people.

I cried when AOC found out she had won, running into the bar not being allowed in until the security guards realising it was her and then seeing the fact that she won with 82%.

@@rickstevens1479 👍🗽💨

AOC is such a kind and smart woman. Very upright, she is a great person. Of course I don’t know her in real life and often your “face” on camera and around others is different, but I can see her genuine smile some times and how she tries her hardest to be kind to other people.
This is one of the best documentary’s I’ve seen in a long time. Girl power, I love you AOC
I never knew the story of alexandria ocasio cortez until i watched this.... and by the end of it, it had be crying actual tears! Her ambition and determination has moved me, such an inspiration.
@Loki the sly one1 of the only politicians that never took corporate money is the puppet? You're pretty misinformed, good job.
@Loki the sly one Even if that's true, who she a puppet to? She's a puppet to her beliefs? They obviously saw something in her, and she qualified. The justice Democrats run on the exact same platform she believes in. Being a puppet is being paid by corporate money for corporate interest, and going against your own beliefs. Not even close to the same at all.
.
@Loki the sly one I watched it twice. Your point? Where the actual rebuttal. I didn't say what you said wasn't true, but it litterly changes nothing. She wasn't just picked out of thin air, and she's obviously qualified.
@Loki the sly one Guess if they would've chosen a white guy he would've deserved it, but not her. Being a puppet is being a sell out to your beliefs, she believes in the same beliefs as the justice Democrats. Very weak argument.
@Loki the sly one I know all about the justice dems. She wasn't randomly picked, she was nominated , then considered because of her community work and not selling out for a job or corporation. She got the job that 10,000 people applied for, not 3 people . And no video link was posted, we don't need people like Trump or Biden in office, but more people like the justice Dems , Bernie Sanders and other progressives who aren't owned by corporations. Every civilized country in the world has universal healthcare except America, puppets don't that as a top priority.

It's strange that the people you think are far left are centric here in Switzerland. And believe me we are a capitalist country but also we believe in social security.
From a European point of view American politics are nuts.
Well the américan politics is only on the right of thé political spectrum for européens, and compared to thé World.
Say it louder for the people in the back
People in the USA have either a spartan, social darwinism mindset (I think Trump falls in that category), or they put themselves entirely in God's hands.
By American standards, you guys are basically the Soviets. Besides America also believes in social security. They paid banks and big corporations billions. Nothing says free market economics by shoving billions down the throat of zombie corps.
What an insightful and informative documentary! Thank you for this! (From Vietnam with love)
I'm not american. I'm french.
But even across the atlantic, in a country where more than half the population don't speak english properly ne included, AOC and the last others are making themselves known for the guts they have.
They are inspiring us.

Please educate yourself before spewing nonsense. The only thing you gave me was opinion none of what you said was fact.
One of the great spectacular events I've watched in my life time and is up there with all those other great moments in time. Please ladies all of you stand up and take a bow for fighting the hard fight for what is right for all of us and not for just the few. Your struggles while treading the path trodden by many over the years is an inspiration to the many in your desire to seek out justice and righteousness for all is heart warming. May all that did not make it rest easy in knowing that so many out there are grateful knowing that you all were prepared to stick your heads above the parapets without big financial backing and dear to tell the establishment to go get stuffed, yes one big in their faces. Love you all and please don't give up the fight cause someone has to do it.

Winner-take-all state electoral college agreements could hand the election to Trump, again.
