On the second day of the Democratic National Convention, Former President Barack Obama and second gentleman Doug Emhoff will take to the stage, shifting the spotlight towards Vice President Kamala Harris in her upcoming contest against Republican Donald Trump.
The first night of the convention aimed to facilitate a dignified exit for the incumbent president while warmly ushering in Kamala Harris. Biden's vigorous and clear address was reminiscent of his victorious 2020 campaign, vigorously defending his vice president and denouncing Trump's leadership.
In a poignant affirmation of his 2020 campaign theme, Biden proclaimed, 'we're in a battle for the very soul of America,' championing Harris and her running mate Tim Walz as the ideal leaders for this crucial fight. Kamala Harris expressed gratitude for Biden's historic leadership before heading to pivotal campaign stops in Milwaukee and Chicago. The coming days will feature notable speakers from critical battleground states, culminating with Harris accepting the Democratic nomination on Thursday.
