why do you think she's such a good choice for the democratic nomination? well, all you have to do is look at the reactions across the democratic party here in the united states. today. there's tremendous excitement. she appeals to the younger generations to the millennials to jen z, whereas president biden was not connecting with them the same way. she is and she's already received the endorsements of key people. president bill clinton, secretary, hillary clinton secretary john kerry. you know, we can go on and on down all the key senators represent james cliburn who is key to present biden's. victory just came out and announced his endorsement of campbell heiress. i think that this was a very good move at the right time. so as we're seeing there, it sounds like the democratic party is closing ranks around kamala harris. so do you think are, and i'm a nation is no issue and at the next democratic convention. well, i would hope it's a shooting because this is not the time for the democrats to be busy fighting amongst each other now. and now is the time for t

well, now the attention shifts to vice president kamala harris as she vows to earn the democratic nomination. the local support she's gaining as a potential first black woman on a major party ticket. plus, our countdown to paris, the opening ceremony just four days away. we are here with the final preparations on today in the ba. and good morning to you on this monday. thanks for making us a part of your morning. i'm marcus washington, and i'm laura garcia. let's get a look at the forecast. it's always a nice start to our mornings here in the bay area, but what are we in store for? let's check in with kari. yeah, we are getting ready for some higher heat today. and the weekend was so nice to take a break, but today it comes back with these areas in pink included in an excessive heat warning. with our temperatures in the upper 90s and near 100 degrees. a heat advisory in effect for the santa cruz mountains and the santa clara valley, and much of the north bay as well, away from the coastline. at least we do have our cool start this morning. it is 54 as you step out in sonoma. it is 56 in frem

in a statement, the vice president said her intention is to earn and win the democratic nomination and if nominated, it would be her second run. harris ran against president biden during the 2020 democratic primary and dropped out, only to later endorse him and then become his running mate during her political career, she's been a boss to many. when harris was the da in sf, nancy tung, the chair of the sf democratic county central committee, was hired as a prosecutor. they've known each other since 2006. i say underestimate kamala harris at your peril. she is an amazing campaigner. she has incredible star power. if you've ever met her in person, you would know what i mean. but even then, like she is a her training is as a prosecutor first and foremost, and she will prosecute her case to the american people as to why she is the best choice for president harris. technically has already served as president, stepping in for 85 minutes back in 2021, while mr. biden was under anesthesia for a routine medical procedure. so could the role of a full term president be next? i spoke to a longtime

does have a lot of work to do before she can secure the democratic nomination. she said in her own statement that she intends to earn and win that nomination heading into the august convention. now, there have been many prominent democrats who have come out and supported harris, but she has been working the phones, spent about ten hours on the phone yesterday, reaching out to democratic party leaders, including former presidents bill clinton and barak obama. now clinton endorse harris is nominee or run for the nomination obama has yet to do that, but this is a democratic process that will need to play out in the coming weeks it's harris intention to go forward and tried to seek that a democratic nomination with the backing of president joe biden. >> right now, eva, let's talk more about what we could be hearing today from vice president harris. what are you hearing? >> later this morning. she will give remarks honoring ncaa championship teams it's unclear if she will well address this shake-up in the democratic ticket. but what she has been doing behind the scene

democratic nominee. harris responded saying, i'm honored to have the president's endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination. the democratic national convention is just a month away bite and had secured the most delegates to win the parties. nomination was bite and gone. those delegate stores automatically passed to harris. it's now what's known as an open convention with delegates free to support the candidate of their choice. harris already has 2 powerful endorsements for were you as president, bill clinton and former 1st lady, and the 1st female nominated for president hillary clinton. but for us, president brock, obama and former 1st lady michelle obama have not endorsed harris. in the statement, obama writes the party will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead. republicans are threatening to challenge jo biden's decision to step down. they argue a president no longer fit to be the nominee should also no longer be running the country. kimberly health is l g 0. the white house, republican presidential candidate donald trump has posted on his social media platform saying joe biden was not fit t

able to receive arkansas talking about kamala harris and her effort to win the democratic parties. presidential nomination party committee chairman, jamie harrison now says, the democrats planned to design by august 7th, who will face republican donald trump in november's election. and of course, the rates for the white house will determine the course of us foreign policy. moving forward for more were now joined by charles coach and a senior fellow at the council on foreign relations. so biden's decision to step down was widely praised by many international leaders, but with conflicts raging in ukraine and gaza. doesn't further complicate america's international security situation. or well, i think that many allies around the world in europe, ukrainians themselves thought very highly of biden, and they're sad to see him go. that having been sad, i think it became apparent over the last couple of weeks since biden's performance in the debate. that the gap between buying and trunk was growing by the day not just in the swing states. but in states that used to be relatively, say, democratic states, as a cons

he'll no longer seek the democratic nomination for president. i believe it's in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and focus solely on fulfilling my duties as president for the remainder of my term. i was so deeply moved by the presence, powerful and poignant statements which was truly courageous and visionary present by them has been one of the the greatest most courageous and consequential presence of american history. the calls for by then to drop his bid for a 2nd term exploded last month after what many critics described as a disaster is debate performance. it goes for were us president donald trump stepping down 5 in immediately endorsed vice president comma la harris to be the democratic nominee. harris responded, saying, i'm honored to have the president's endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination. commer harris is the easiest pick based on the back to the vice president. and i think it would be tough for the party to try to go a different direction than that. his performance was, has

and now everyone is asking, can vice president harris snag that democratic nomination without a struggled of course, the bigger question here, scott mcgrew, is can kamala harris beat donald trump in november? well, all the polling, marcus, we have from the past weeks where there was a harris trump matchup was, of course, theoretical and to be fair, it's still theoretical. the vice president has not been nominated yet. so an nbc poll conducted way back in early july showed trump ahead of harris by two points or so. but that's well within the margin of error. so we can call that inconclusive. and this is a national poll. as we have said so many times, we do not elect presidents with a nationwide vote. we elect state by state. and harris would likely struggle in some of the battleground states like pennsylvania or arizona, the same way any democrat does, which may influence her choice for vice president should she win the nomination. among the names being batted about mark kelly, the former astronaut now senator from arizona, josh shapiro, is the governor of pennsylvania. gavin newsom, less

we haven't seen a strong challenge to vice president harris for the democratic nomi nomination. there's limited upside to doing so. if you think this is a situation to go up against trump and win, if you challenge harris and lose, all of the chances might be out because you might be seen as being unloyal by the party. if you think she could bwin, sae thing. >> that's right. >> as you were saying, john, this is a situation where we haven't seen the president pull out of a race this close to a party convention. lbj, harry truman, they did in march. this is something we haven't seen before. if you are to combine that with all of the talk about an open primary or open convention or some device to have people run against each other, the frank thing is, the leaders of the democratic party think it's too late. it doesn't look as if a lot of democratic challengers are lining up to run against kamala harris. >> yes. i've seen polling that suggests a lot of the electorate, a lot of the independents, have a strong feeling about vice president harris. i guess the race is on from harris' sid

so when the democratic nomination for president, the car in the us, vice president is moving fast to secure the backing. she needs some leading democrats on the campaign donations with how she's done. you know, the race for the nomination was spot vice president. 5 is decision not to seek re election, many democrats, and not hiring this as a socialist unpacked. we also got to see the mission is to protect our nation's leaders. on july 13th, we failed to visit the head of the us with the sales congress the attempted assassination of donald trump's. course the agency is the biggest failure for the i'm feel welcome to the program. us vice president couple of harris has made the 1st public appearance since beginning have been to win the democratic nomination for president of the united states as an event at the white house. she prized president bible's achievements and talks about to a professional relationship with his son. the job i have is legacy of accomplishment over the past 3 years. is unmatched in modern history. in one term, he has already, yes, you may class in one term, he has

she herself ran a campaign to try to get the democrats presidential nomination before job. i want it so it's not as if she does complete a know we know where she stands. she is a nation's most experience and accomplish vice president on paper that says something. but then it also gives republicans a lot of chance to really try to delve into her records in california and painter as, as california liberal. who will always cow tell it to the left and that doesn't tend to play well, obviously would be both of folks who are in the 7th when he stays, i call them. but uh, these folks are on the fence. will they feel that, you know? yes, she's too far left for them that remained yet to be seen. i haven't seen any good empirical evidence that allows me to draw conclusions about that. but it will say there, there are some vulnerabilities for our firm. and i think her team has known about them for awhile because in recent months, republicans have been saying a particularly recent weeks of trump and other we're both of them have been saying nikki haley included that a vote for bided. t
