Kamala Harris Launches Presidential Bid: ‘My Intention Is to Earn and Win This Nomination’
Kamala Harris, who launched her campaign for president, has long been a favorite of Hollywood donors.
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.
I mean, if it's gonna happen - she's gonna be the best bet. She has funding from the same campaign, and at least she's not going around claiming that trees randomly explode.
I'll be happier to vote for her than I would have been voting for Biden.
My sincere best wishes to her
Now that Biden dropped out, Trump is going to be the oldest presidential candidate to run. Are we sure he's fit to run? Is his brain declining? Does he have dementia or Alzheimer's?

She was always my first choice in 2016. She is not afraid of confronting trump or any other authoritarians around the world.
She was always my first choice in 2016
Statistically there had to be some...
But Kamala was the weakest in the 2020 primary.
She's better than Joe, but she's not popular. And her numbers reflect that
Hell, unless you had a typo I legit don't even remember her running in 2016
I would have preferred if her first statement was about stomping out fascism and restoring and cementing abortion rights, rather than "winning and earning the nomination"...
That said: big q for me is who she'll pick as vp!
Sit them all down in a room, ask "who here has been to space?" and pick Mark Kelly.
She should take a woman as VP!
That’s… not a terribly pragmatic idea. These days, it’s a good idea to pick a running mate whose strengths balance out or cover for the ticket leader’s weaknesses (real or perceived). Here, that means an uncontroversial white dude, because America is unfortunately still quite racist and sexist.
She's not gonna earn anything, she will demand loyalty like the rest of them
Little quick off the mark to already be saying things this tiresome, aren't we?
lol please go touch grass
Go home, Russian propaganda.
The fuck are you on about?
