Kamala Harris reassures amid worries about succeeding Joe Biden.
Vice President Kamala Harris: Ready to Lead
Vice President Kamala Harris wants voters to know that she is prepared to step up and replace President Joe Biden if necessary. In a recent interview on CBS News’s Face the Nation, Harris addressed concerns about her potential presidency.
“They’re honing in on you. Why do you think that is? How do you respond to those attacks?”
Host Margaret Brennan didn’t hold back, asking Harris to respond to the fears expressed by several 2024 GOP candidates. Initially, Harris deflected the question and highlighted the accomplishments of her administration alongside Joe Biden.
“That’s not about policy. That’s about you.”
Brennan pressed further, emphasizing that the attacks were personal. Harris remained unfazed, stating, “There’s nothing new about that. They feel the need to attack because they’re scared that we will win based on the merit of the work that Joe Biden and I, and our administration, has done.”
Addressing concerns about her age, Brennan pointed out that Harris is currently 58 years old, while Biden is 81. If they were to win a second term, Biden would be 86 at the end of it. The CBS host asked Harris if she was ready to become commander in chief.
“Yes, I am, if necessary. But Joe Biden is going to be fine,”
Harris confidently replied. She went on to highlight the transformative work being done under Biden’s leadership, including investments in infrastructure, high-speed internet, and addressing issues like lead pipes.
“We will win the election. We will win reelection,” Harris added. “There’s too much at stake, and the American people know it.”
Biden is currently facing competition from two other Democratic candidates, environmental lawyer Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and author Marianne Williamson, in the race for his second term.
