President Joe Biden has announced that he will not seek re-election, endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic Party's nominee for the upcoming presidential race. This decision follows a challenging debate performance against Donald Trump, which raised concerns about Biden's ability to continue his campaign.

In his announcement, Biden urged the Democratic Party to rally behind Harris, whom he described as his best decision during his presidency. He expressed his intention to focus entirely on his presidential duties for the remainder of his term. "My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term," Biden stated on social media platform X. He called Harris' candidacy a historic moment, as she would be the first Indian-origin woman to run for the U.S. presidency.

Vice President Harris responded with gratitude for Biden's support, calling his decision "selfless and patriotic." She praised Biden's leadership and pledged to earn the nomination and lead the party to victory. Harris highlighted the significance of Biden's legacy, noting that his contributions as a one-term president would be remembered as exceptional.

Biden's decision to withdraw from the race came after significant pressure from Democratic lawmakers and party officials concerned about his debate performance. His announcement signals a strategic move to consolidate party unity and strengthen the campaign against Trump.

As the campaign progresses, Harris will seek to build on Biden's legacy while positioning herself as the leader to guide the Democratic Party to success in the next election.
