USA Vice President Camala to contest Trump as Biden out of the USA presidential race
In a surprising turn of events, President Joe Biden has officially announced his decision to withdraw from the 2024 U.S. presidential election race. The 81-year-old incumbent, born on November 20, 1942, in Scranton, Pennsylvania, has chosen to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic Party's new nominee.
A Historic Endorsement
Kamala Harris, born on October 20, 1964, in Oakland, California, has served as the 49th and current vice president of the United States since 2021. Harris made history as the first female vice president and the highest-ranking female official in U.S. history. She is also the first African-American and first Asian-American to hold the position. Prior to her vice presidency, Harris was a U.S. senator from California from 2017 to 2021 and the attorney general of California from 2011 to 2017.
Biden's Legacy
Joe Biden's political journey has been marked by significant achievements and personal challenges. He has been a prominent figure in American politics for decades, serving as a U.S. senator from Delaware from 1973 to 2009, and as vice president under President Barack Obama from 2009 to 2017. Biden's presidency, beginning on January 20, 2021, focused on addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, economic recovery, and social justice issues.
Family and Personal Life
Joe Biden's personal life has been marked by both triumphs and tragedies. He married Neilia Hunter Biden in 1966, and they had three children: Beau, Hunter, and Naomi Christina. Tragically, Neilia and Naomi Christina died in a car accident in 1972. Biden later married Jill Biden in 1977, and they have a daughter, Ashley Biden.
The New Race: Harris vs. Trump
With Biden's exit, the presidential race now intensifies between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. Trump, who recently survived an assassination attempt, remains a dominant figure in the Republican Party. This development sets the stage for a historic and highly contested election, with significant implications for the future direction of the United States.
What This Means for the Democratic Party
Biden's endorsement of Kamala Harris is a significant move for the Democratic Party. Harris's experience, both as a senator and attorney general, combined with her groundbreaking role as vice president, positions her as a strong candidate for the presidency. Her nomination is expected to energize the party and bring diverse support to the Democratic ticket.
