Kewl so who else you wanna put up there?
The people. Frankly electoral democracy in America is already dead and can only be resuscitated via worker action. By the midterms America will have became either a progressive democracy or a fascist dictatorship already, so there's no point fussing about it right now. If you have the time to do that, organize in your neighborhood or city and get resisting.
AOC. Now tell me that women can't win because you don't want to run that particular woman.
The DNC def don't want to run her. She's another Bernie the exact right person they need but they will pass to avoid losing the centre votes.
