Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton, both former President and former Secretary of State respectively, have announced their endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee for president.

In a statement on Sunday, the Clintons said, “President Biden has capped his extraordinary career of service with a Presidency that has lifted America out of an unprecedented pandemic, created millions of new jobs, rebuilt a battered economy, strengthened our democracy, and restored our standing in the world. By any measure, he has advanced our founders’ charge to build a more perfect union and his own stated goal of restoring the soul of our nation.

“We join millions of Americans in thanking President Biden for all he has accomplished, standing up for America time and again, with his North Star always being what’s best for the country,” the continued.”We are honored to join the President in endorsing Vice President Harris and will do whatever we can to support her.”

They expressed, We have experienced numerous challenges and triumphs, but nothing has caused us more concern for our nation than the possibility of a second term for Trump. He has openly declared his intentions to act as a dictator from the very beginning, and the recent decision made by his compliant Supreme Court will only encourage him to continue dismantling the Constitution. It is crucial to stand behind Kamala Harris now and give our all to ensure her election. The future of America hinges on this.

The declaration was made shortly after Biden’s dramatic announcement that he would not pursue re-election.
