Right, we haven't tried it before...
We have tried running an incumbent with approval numbers as bad as Biden before tho.
How much do you know about Jimmy Carter's second term?
I think the problem is the furtherest left we have is AOC. And despite what republicans and moderate Dems say, she's way more of an MLK than a Malcom. And MLK was very open that his peaceful approach was only accepted because the alternative to MLK wasn't the status quo, it was motherfukin Malcolm.
The only downside to AOC people can come up with that is that she's the furthest left, so to fix that we need to bring up other names.
Like self avowed communist, rapper, writer, director, and political activist for decades: Boots Riley.
And just like Malcolm wasn't prepared to accept the status quo, Boots has a plan for when voting truly stops working:

I truly hope it never comes to that, but historically it's got a pretty good success rate...
And just the existence of a Malcolm like option makes conservatives suddenly wishing for AOC.
But here's a clip from Boots' most recent show that shows how on point his messaging is if he gets a platform:
