In a one-two upheaval in US politics, President Joe Biden has said he will not run for re-election in November and instead endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris.
Harris already made history by becoming the first Black and female vice president in US history, but has faced concerns over whether she can defeat Republican candidate and former President Donald Trump.
The coming days will show if Harris will indeed be embraced by the party and chosen as their candidate at the Democratic National Convention next month.
On Sunday, Biden called the decision to pick former prosecutor Harris for his 2020 ticket “the best decision I’ve made”, while calling on Democrats to support her.
