Just In: Obama Endorses Kamala Harris For US President

Former US President Barack Obama announced his endorsement of Kamala Harris’ presidential bid on Friday. In a statement shared on the social media platform X, Obama expressed his strong support for Harris, saying:

“Earlier this week, Michelle and I called our friend Kamala Harris. We told her we think she’ll make a fantastic President of the United States, and that she has our full support.”

Obama’s endorsement is a significant boost to Harris’ campaign, as he remains a highly influential figure in the Democratic Party. By publicly backing Harris, Obama is signaling to his supporters and the wider Democratic electorate that he believes she has the qualities and qualifications necessary to succeed as President.
