The old boss approves.Former President
Barack Obama on Tuesday said his old right hand man and the presumptive
Democratic nominee, former Vice President
Joe Biden, "nailed" his running mate selection. Earlier in the day, Biden tapped Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) as his running mate in the race against
President Trump, and Obama said he "couldn't be more thrilled," describing Harris as "an ideal partner" for Biden.
Not only has Obama known Harris for many years, he's been an active supporter of her political career for a while. Back in 2010, when Harris was running for
California attorney general, she was the only down-ballot Democrat the then-president raised funds for, Politico reported at the time.
