Sat Jan 11 02:32:33 UTC 2025: ## Biden Says Harris Competent to Run for President in 2028
**Washington, D.C. –** Outgoing U.S. President Joe Biden declared Friday that Vice President Kamala Harris is capable of seeking the presidency in 2028, leaving the ultimate decision to Harris herself. Biden’s statement came during a press conference, where he acknowledged Harris’s competence but emphasized the choice rests solely with her.
This statement follows Harris’s unsuccessful bid for the presidency in the November 2024 election, which she lost to Donald Trump. Biden, who withdrew from the race himself following a poorly received debate, had endorsed Harris as the Democratic nominee. Harris, the first Indian American, African American, and woman to hold the vice presidency, has yet to publicly announce her future political aspirations.
