SUMMARY
Former President Barack Obama is set to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris's presidential bid soon. In recent days, Obama and Harris have had multiple discussions about her campaign. Obama, who has been privately supporting Harris, has not yet made a public endorsement, aiming to avoid overshadowing President Joe Biden's recent Oval Office address. While other prominent Democrats have endorsed Harris, Obama has kept his support private, intending for his endorsement to be a significant moment. Plans are also in the works for Obama and Harris to appear together on the campaign trail. Michelle Obama is also backing Harris. Obama views his role as a unifying force for the party and plans to be active on the campaign trail this fall. Despite past concerns about Biden’s campaign performance, Obama has supported the transition to Harris and sees himself as a valuable resource for her upcoming campaign.
