President Biden Endorses Kamala Harris: I Voted, She's Experienced and Tough

JAKARTA - United States President Joe Biden again expressed his support for Vice President Kamala Harris to run in the November presidential election, delivering praise during a speech in the Oval Office, White House, Wednesday night.

This was President Biden's first speech and public appearance, after he was announced positive for COVID-19 and withdrew from the nomination last week.

"In just a few months, the American people are choosing the direction of America's future," said President Biden, as reported by CNN on July 25.

"I have made my choice. I have expressed my views. I want to thank our great Vice President, Kamala Harris," he continued.

"She is experienced. She is tough. She is capable. She has been a tremendous partner to me and a leader for our country. Now the choice is yours, the American people: you make that choice," said President Biden.

Vice President Harris quickly consolidated party support and became the Democratic presidential candidate earlier this week.

"I am honored to have the President's endorsement and my intention is to seek and win this nomination," she tweeted on social media.

"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," Vice President Harris continued.
