Kamala Harris could be President of the United States': Joe Biden on possibility
This remark from Biden comes amidst a rising chorus from Democrats urging him to step down ahead of the upcoming November 5 presidential election
US President Joe Biden said that Vice President Kamala Harris "could be President of the United States" during his speech at the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) annual convention.
This remark from Biden comes amidst a rising chorus from Democrats urging him to step down ahead of the upcoming November 5 presidential election.
Biden praised Harris, who is 59 years old, as not only a remarkable vice president but also as a potential future leader of the nation, signalling her as the ideal candidate to succeed him should he choose to retire. Despite this, Biden assured his audience that he had already laid out plans for the initial 100 days of his second term.
If Kamala Harris assumes the presidency and emerges victorious in the presidential race, she would become the first woman of colour elected as President of the United States.
Concerns within the Democratic Party regarding Biden's performance lacking zeal in the initial presidential debate have fueled calls for him to step aside, with Vice President Kamala Harris emerging as the favoured alternative to taking his place.
