Former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama officially endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president in a video released Friday morning, after days of silence over their support.
The announcement came as big-name Democrats have coalesced around Harris as their new choice to take on former President Donald Trump in the 2024 election. President Biden endorsed Harris this past Sunday, the same day he announced he would no longer run for a second term – but until Friday, the Obamas had kept quiet.
In the video, Barack Obama could be heard first greeting Kamala, with Michelle chiming in as well.
