Who Will Get Obama’s Endorsement?

CNBC: “A primary field including both Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) and former Vice President Joe Biden could make the choice especially tricky since they would likely be the top contenders for his backing.”

“Harris and Biden have had long and fruitful relationships with Obama. The former two-term president would arguably end up the biggest supporter of a Biden 2020 run, but Obama also counts Harris as a loyal ally. Harris was San Francisco district attorney when she threw her support behind Obama’s presidential run in early 2007 — a time when many other elected politicians in the nation’s most populous state backed then-frontrunner Hillary Clinton.”

“With other Obama political allies likely to enter the 2020 presidential race, though, many Democratic strategists believe the former president won’t rush into endorsing anyone.”
