It depends what players at the table are calling raises with. If they're calling with AJ, KQ, KJ and QJ or worse then raising AQ (and KQ) is a no-brainer. Just need to avoid a situation where you're either a big dominated underdog or just picking up blinds.

What cards I have in my pocket have very little input into how much I'm raising pre-flop. The amount of money on the table, position, number of limpers, stack sizes and amounts being called by non-premium hands are much more important. If I'm comming in for a raise, I'm comming in for a raise and giving as little information possible on just what I have in my hand.
