Biden suggests Harris could become president despite worries about his age – Washington Examiner
President Joe Biden suggested that Vice President Kamala Harris could become president. During a speech at the 115th NAACP National Convention, Biden praised Harris and hinted at the possibility of her potentially becoming president in the future. This statement comes amid concerns about Biden’s age and Harris’s role in the administration. Biden said, “I would like to see a young America, a young president. And if Kamala wasn’t there, it would be great.” He went on to emphasize the importance of having diverse leadership in the White House and expressed his confidence in Harris’s ability to lead.
Harris has made history as the first female, first Black, and first Asian American vice president, and many see her as a potential future president. However, Biden’s comments have sparked speculation about his own future plans and whether he intends to run for re-election in 2024.
Biden’s statement reflects his support for Harris and his belief in the importance of having a diverse leadership team in the highest levels of government. It remains to be seen what the future holds for both Biden and Harris, but their partnership continues to be a prominent feature of the current administration.
Biden says Kamala Harris could be president amid age concerns
President Joe Biden suggested that Vice President Kamala Harris could become president.
While speaking at the 115th NAACP National Convention, Biden began touting his appointment of several black people to prominent positions of power. After mentioning Harris, he said she could become president.
“Folks, it’s because of you that I’m president and Kamala Harris is vice president,” he said. “By the way, she’s not only a great vice president; she could be president of the United States.”
The remark was met by cheers and chants of “four more years.”
Amid concerns over Biden’s mental acuity, Harris has emerged as the top choice should he be replaced. Biden’s remark, though not likely intended to imply he will step down, could fuel his doubters within the Democratic Party who have been trying to remove him as the nominee since his shaky debate performance last month.
Biden’s speech at the NAACP conference comes amid a push to shore up support with minority voters, whom he sees as key to keeping his nomination and winning in November.
