Gangel, referencing sources close to the vice president, noted that Harris is evaluating a list of potential running mates to consolidate support and generate enthusiasm. One prominent name on the list is Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ), “who I am told she likes a lot,” Gangel mentioned. Both Kelly and his wife, former congresswoman Gabby Giffords, have already endorsed Harris’ candidacy.
Other contenders include Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, and North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper. “There are clearly others, but those four names are the names I keep hearing about,” the CNN reporter added.
In the wake of President Biden’s unforeseen decision, Harris has garnered numerous endorsements within hours, coming just five months before the general election. Key endorsements include Bill and Hillary Clinton, Alex Soros, and President Biden himself, as of Sunday afternoon.
However, not all leading Democrats have followed suit. Notably, California Governor Gavin Newsom, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) chose to praise Biden without explicitly endorsing Harris.
Former President Barack Obama also omitted mentioning Vice President Harris in his lengthy statement. “We will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead. But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges,” Obama wrote. “I believe that Joe Biden’s vision of a generous, prosperous, and united America that provides opportunity for everyone will be on full display at the Democratic Convention in August. And I expect that every single one of us are prepared to carry that message of hope and progress forward into November and beyond.”
The Democratic Party faces a complex scenario. To tap into the Biden-Harris campaign funds, sticking with Harris seems essential. As of 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time on Sunday, the Biden presidential committee had rebranded itself to “Harris for President.”
Carry 46 rounds concealed? (comfortably)
Campaign leaders have reassured staff of continued employment, emphasizing their goal to elect Harris.
President Biden has not yet made a public statement regarding his decision but has indicated he will address the nation later this week.
This sudden shift has set the stage for an intense and fast-paced campaign period as Harris prepares to take on this unexpected opportunity. The coming days will reveal how the Democratic Party navigates this unprecedented situation and who will ultimately stand beside Harris as her running mate.
Obama’s statement as was quoted above when he says, “We will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead. But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges,” . . . just goes to prove his level of involvement as part of the deep state. All the references to “we”, “I”, our” party like he’s working in it. If he wasn’t truly the one pulling Joe’s strings behind the scenes then he wouldn’t be using that language and always be coming out at Dem events, speaking at the party events, and making such statements. Most presidents after having finished their terms just go away and retire or go on with their own business and life. But not this one, he wants to stay in control. He’ll do it through any proxy but he wants to stay in control. I wouldn’t be surprised if he wanted to change the laws so that a president can have as many terms as he wants for as long as he wants to (through cheating methods of course) while making the public believe he was voted in; much like the T guy in Canada.
