Kamala Harris’ 2024 presidential marketing campaign simply bought a large enhance — and it comes from none aside from Barack and Michelle Obama!
Earlier this week, Michelle and I known as our good friend @KamalaHarris. We advised her we expect she’ll make a implausible President of the US, and that she has our full help. At this crucial second for our nation, we’re going to do all the things we are able to to ensure she wins in… pic.twitter.com/0UIS0doIbA

The previous president and first girl endorsed Harris’ presidential bid in a video launched Friday on social media … though the decision apparently occurred earlier this week. Harris will get a joint telephone name from the Obamas, the place they gush over her and say they’re going to do all the things they’ll to get her into the Oval Workplace.
Evidently, VP Harris is extremely grateful and goes on to thank them for his or her steady help and friendship through the years.
The endorsement comes amid reviews that Barack already provided up his endorsement to Harris in non-public … however stayed noticeably tight-lipped after she announced her campaign on Sunday.
It was a surprising move by the former prez, as President Joe Biden had already endorsed Harris when he announced he was ending his bid for reelection. Countless Democratic leaders soon followed suit … with Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Pete Buttigieg, Elizabeth Warren and more formally endorsing Harris this week.
Similarly, many in Hollywood backed Harris’ run for the Oval Office … including Beyoncé, Charli XCX, Cardi B, Barbra Streisand, John Legend, Ariana Grande, among others.
Still, it was previously reported BO didn’t want to overshadow Biden’s announcement by dropping his endorsement too soon.
Barack Obama’s support of Harris is a full circle moment for the Vice President, who was an early supporter of his first presidential campaign in 2008.
Like Obama, Harris could make history if elected in November … as she’d be the first female and first person of South Asian descent to be elected president. She’d be the 2nd Black president after Obama, too.
