      Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) left the door open Sunday to either running for president in 2028 or challenging fellow New Yorker and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer.

Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), and whichever path she chooses could reshape the future of Democratic politics. Driving the news: ABC's Jonathan Karl asked Ocasio-Cortez on "This Week" whether she would run for president,...
