In a major political twist, former President Barack Obama has officially thrown his support behind Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential race. This endorsement comes shortly after President Joe Biden announced he would not seek re-election, leaving the Democratic ticket wide open for Harris to step in as the frontrunner. Harris, who now holds the distinction of being the first Black female candidate to lead a major party’s presidential ticket, is enjoying a surge in the polls as she consolidates support within the Democratic Party.
The former president, along with former First Lady Michelle Obama, issued a joint statement praising Harris’s qualifications and potential as a future leader. “Earlier this week, Michelle and I called our friend @KamalaHarris. We told her we think she’ll make a fantastic President of the United States, and that she has our full support. At this critical moment for our country, we’re going to do everything we can to make sure she wins in November. We hope you’ll join us,” President Obama shared on X, accompanied by a heartfelt video of Harris receiving the endorsement call.
