Michelle Obama, the first lady, and former President Barack Obama have both formally backed Vice President Kamala Harris for president.
Early on Friday morning, the Harris campaign unveiled a video featuring the presumed Democratic presidential nominee accepting a call from the political power couple, revealing their endorsement of her.
Harris flew to Indianapolis on Wednesday to speak to the Zeta Phi Beta sorority, and that’s where the video was shot.
The announcement of the endorsement was postponed, a Democratic official told DailyMail.com, so as not to interfere with President Joe Biden’s Wednesday night speech in the Oval Office.
‘Kamala!’ the brief clip begins, with President Obama’s distinct voice coming over the VP’s cell phone. ‘Hey there!’ chimes in Michelle.
As Harris walks through the event venue towards her SUV, she gushes, ‘Ohh hi, you’re both together. It’s good to hear you both.’
‘I can’t have this phone call without saying to my girl Kamala, I am proud of you,’ Michelle says. ‘This is going to be historic.’
‘We called to say, Michelle and I, couldn’t be prouder to endorse you and to do everything we can to get you through this election and into the Oval Office,’ the former president chimes in.
There were significant doubts as to why the Obamas delayed endorsing Harris as other prominent Democrats lined up.
The Democratic official told DailyMail.com that the former president wanted to do something ‘more than a statement.’
Before the endorsement announcement, the Trump campaign propagated the story that Obama was not happy with how the party was uniting around Harris and that Harris had secured the nomination on Monday night with enough delegates supporting her.
‘There is a strong sense by many in the Democrat Party – namely Barack Hussein Obama – that Kamala Harris is a Marxist fraud who cannot beat President Trump, and they are still holding out for someone “better,”‘ said Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung Thursday night.
The broader intent of the statement was to say that Republican rival, former President Donald Trump, would not finalize a debate schedule until ‘Democrats formally decide on their nominee.’
The Democratic nomination process, which will take place virtually ahead of the Chicago convention, will wrap up by August 7.
In the short video, Harris told the Obamas she was looking forward to seeing them out on the campaign trail.
Michelle has not yet attended a campaign event, even though the former president supported Biden by attending some expensive fundraisers, including the notorious one with George Clooney.
The Democrats will vote for anyone who ticks their boxes whether incompetent or not, and there seems to be a lot of arms-twisting going on.
In her capacity as an independent, Kamala Harris never got a single vote. Having received less than 1% of the popular vote and no delegates in the 2020 primary, she was compelled to withdraw right away. Now, she is running for president without obtaining a single vote. The founding fathers of America would be turning in their graves.
Almost every member of her team resigned, and it appears that the woman cannot get along with anyone. People’s unity is the task. She has demonstrated her inability to collaborate and bargain with individuals on both sides of the issue, but then what would America’s founding fathers have to say about Donald Trump inciting an insurrection to try and overthrow a democratic election?
It appears that the Westminster style of administration, in which the party choose the leader rather than the people, has been embraced by the Democratic Party.
