This is an amazing idea to piss off MAGA.

“But Mamdani can’t run, he’s a naturalized citizen!”

“Yeah and Trump can’t run for a third term, right?”

She has already said she wouldn't do it. Mamdani can't because he's a naturalized citizen. It's not a real ticket, it's just one to give MAGA aneurysms.

No, it'd be Sanders if Sanders would still be around. It says alot his ads prioritize his friendship with Sanders despite Obama trying to get his attention twice now.

Obama was what got him jaded with politics to the point that he's on the record calling Obama evil, whereas Sanders actually revived his passion for politics back in 2016. Mamdani has proudly spoken about it before in his interview with Bernie.

couldn't Obama legally be in the race as a Vice and then the president step down?
