Kamala Harris has launched her campaign for the White House, after President Joe Biden stepped aside Sunday under pressure from party leaders.
The vice president has Biden’s endorsement, and is unchallenged as yet for the Democratic nomination, which will be formally decided at the Aug. 19 convention in Chicago.
“I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination,” Harris said in a statement. “I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party—and unite our nation—to defeat Donald Trump and his extreme Project 2025 agenda. We have 107 days until Election Day. Together, we will fight. And together, we will win.”
In her statement, the vice president paid tribute to Biden’s “extraordinary leadership,” saying he had achieved more in one term than many presidents do in two.
She hasn’t even started campaigning yet, and she was even to Joe or even better.
She literally has been campaigning? She is the VP she campaigns with Joe. She’s in the public eye, people know her and she still trails trump
She has been campaigning… For Biden. That’s the difference between being the backup singer and the lead singer at a concert. Sure the backup singer is still on stage and singing, but it’s just to support the lead singer, not to show off their own talent
How can you possibly think that makes sense?
She’s barely in the public eye. When Jimmy Kimmel had her on his show, he did one of his ‘ask the people on Hollywood boulevard’ segments where he asked them who the VP was and people just kept getting it wrong or didn’t even know.
