Biden suggests Harris could become president despite worries about his age – Washington Examiner
President Joe Biden hinted that Vice President Kamala Harris could potentially become president in the future. During his speech at the NAACP National Convention, Biden praised Harris and suggested that she could lead the country. This statement was made amid concerns about Biden’s age and potential successors. Biden’s comment sparked speculation about Harris potentially running for president in the future, as she would be the first female, Black, and Asian American president if elected. Harris has not yet confirmed any plans to run for president in the future, but her rising popularity and influence within the Democratic Party have led many to believe she would be a strong contender in a future presidential race. Only time will tell if Harris will indeed become president one day, but Biden’s endorsement certainly adds weight to the possibility.
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.
