Former President Barack Obama has officially endorsed Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, making the announcement during a speech to party supporters.
In his endorsement, Obama praised Harris and paid tribute to outgoing President Joe Biden, whom he served as vice president for eight years.
Known for his powerful rhetoric,Barack Obama‘s endorsement is seen as a significant boost for Harris’s campaign.
Since leaving office in 2017, Obama has maintained a relatively low profile but remains a popular figure on the political left.
As the first black president in U.S. history, Obama’s support for Harris, who could be the first female, black, and Asian American vice president, holds significant weight.
If Harris defeats Republican Donald Trump in November, she would make history as the first woman to hold the highest office in the country.
