Backed by Biden, Harris awaits Obama's support

US Vice-President Kamala Harris lauded President Joe Biden's accomplishments in her first public appearance on Monday since he abruptly abandoned his reelection bid and endorsed her as his successor.

"Joe Biden's legacy over the last three years is unmatched in modern history," Harris said at a White House event to honor college athletes. "Every day, our president, Joe Biden, fights for the American people and we deeply, are deeply grateful for his service to our nation."

Harris did not specifically refer to her new status as the leading Democratic candidate for president, after Biden announced on Sunday he was stepping aside under growing pressure from fellow Democrats.
