According to The Wall Street Journal on July 2, 2024, after President Biden's poor performance in the first presidential debate, internal calls for changing the leadership within the Democratic Party have arisen. Vice President Kamala Harris is considered a top contender if Biden were to step down from running for re-election. Despite concerns about Biden's age and capabilities, he has not expressed any intention to withdraw. Harris, popular especially among women and Black voters, could face challenges if nominated. However, her readiness for presidency and support base cannot be overlooked. Harris has been actively defending Biden and reassuring party members amidst fears following the debate, emphasizing that true leadership is about character over style, contrasting Trump's lack of presidential qualities.
