Just days after dropping out of the president’s race, Kamala Harris is being named as a possible Vice Presidential candidate, reports USA Today.
Joe Biden said he’d consider the Senator as a possible running mate.
“Of course I would,” Biden said. “Look, Sen. Harris has the capacity to be anything she wants to be. I mean it sincerely. I talked to her yesterday. She’s solid, she can be president someday herself, she can be vice president, she could go on to be a Supreme Court justice, she could be attorney general. I mean she has enormous capability.”
Ironically, Harris’ best moment in her failed presidential run came this summer when she confronted Biden during a debate. The two talked this week. Biden said he’s “not good at keeping hard feelings.”
“My reaction is she’s of first rate intellect, a first rate candidate and a real competitor,” he said to reporters after getting the news that Harris had dropped out of the race. “I have mixed emotions about it because she is really a solid, solid person, and loaded with talent. And I’m sure she’s not dropping out on wanting to make the changes she cares about.”
