कमला ने सिर्फ 48 घंटे में कंट्रोल में ली पार्टी: विरोधियों के पास 27 मिनट थे, भारतवंशी हैरिस ने उम्मीदवार बनने के लिए क्या-क्या किया

On Sunday morning, July 21, US Vice President Kamala Harris calls her close friends and advisors to her home, the Naval Observatory. Everyone was asked to come on short notice without giving any information.

President Biden had told Kamala Harris in the morning that he was withdrawing his name from the presidential race. Kamala Harris had prepared her team. As soon as Biden officially announced his withdrawal at 1:46 pm, Kamala Harris and her team were ready for their mission. The story of those 48 hours in which Kamala turned the whole party to her side…

US Vice President Kamala Harris interacting with leaders of the Democratic Party

According to the New York Times, Kamala Harris’s team had prepared a list of prominent Democratic leaders who were to be called. Wearing sneakers and a sweatshirt, Kamala Harris started calling powerful leaders of the Democratic Party one by one.

Kamala Harris spent the day talking on the phone. Five of the leaders she called told the New York Times that Kamala told them, “I will know your opinion right away.” Actually, Kamala Harris was trying to find out how many leaders would support her in case she becomes the presidential candidate.

Harris met the top leaders of the party
Kamala spoke on the phone to former presidents of the party, her rivals including Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker and Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro. Apart from these, she also called several Congress members of the Democratic Party.

Kamala’s enthusiasm to win over the party was worth seeing. This enthusiasm was lacking in the party because of Biden. After losing the first presidential debate to Donald Trump, Biden’s candidacy was in limbo, yet he called only 20 Democrat leaders of Congress in the first 10 days. On the other hand, Kamala Harris made more than 100 calls in just 10 hours.

While Harris was making phone calls, another team was formed. This team included Kamala’s close associates and the delegation overseeing the Biden-Harris election campaign. They were given an operation. Its purpose was to influence those who were going to select the presidential candidate.

Within 48 hours, Kamala Harris had wiped out her rivals from the field. She also secured the support of the delegates required for the party’s nomination. Along with this, she raised more than $100 million in donations, which Biden had taken months to raise.

Harris’s candidacy breathed new life into the party
This entire incident showed Kamala Harris’ initial dominance and enthusiasm. It infused a new life into the Democratic Party, which was missing since Biden lost the presidential debate. It also gave the party leaders a chance to breathe easy.

The former chairman of the Democratic National Committee told the New York Times that this was all part of a well-thought-out plan. I have to admit that I myself was amazed at how quickly this was happening.

Kamala Harris was the strongest candidate from the beginning after Biden withdrew from the presidential race. Refusing to nominate Kamala Harris meant losing the support of the Democratic Party’s strongest vote bank, i.e. black women.

How Kamala Harris solidified her candidacy
Robby Mook, who handled Hillary Clinton’s election campaign in 2016, gives the credit for Kamala’s claim to the 48 hours after Biden dropped out of the race. During this time, Kamala took complete control of the party in her hands.

The top leaders of the Democratic Party decided to address the concerns related to Harris. The Republican Party leaders had started making many of her old clips viral. Due to which they could have faced problems in the presidential election. Among these, Kamala Harris not calling illegal immigrants criminals was the main one.

Kamala Harris’s potential rivals had only 27 minutes in which they could present their claim. At 1:46 pm, Biden announced his withdrawal. 27 minutes later, at 2:13 pm, he endorsed Kamala Harris’ name.

Biden’s support to Kamala Harris proved to be very helpful for her. This also cleared the way for Kamala Harris to receive $96 million for the Biden-Harris campaign. She also got a team of 1300 people. Whereas none of her rivals had such a large team to manage the campaign.

According to Federal Election Commission records, the first paperwork for the transition was completed at 4:48 p.m.

After three weeks of questions about Biden’s mental state, internal strife and chaos within the party, the Democrat Party was trying to unite again in the name of Kamala. Kamala Harris was the only way the Democrats had to refocus on Trump.

Bill Clinton and Hillary supported
According to the New York Times, before announcing his withdrawal, Biden had a private conversation with former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. In this conversation, emphasis was laid on maintaining party unity. Two people associated with this conversation told the New York Times that the Clinton couple said that the faster the party unites, the greater will be the chances of winning against Trump.

Within an hour of supporting Biden, Kamala Harris called the Clinton couple separately. After this, the Clinton couple issued a joint statement and requested the party to unite. After this, there was a flood of support for Kamala Harris in the party.

However, many prominent Democratic leaders have not yet supported Kamala Harris. These include former US President Barack Obama. Kamala Harris called Obama on Sunday afternoon itself. Apart from this, Representative Joyce Beatty has openly opposed Kamala Harris.

After Kamala’s support, the Republican Party changed its strategy
The support for Kamala was so widespread in the party that even the opposition Republican Party had to change its strategy. Trump’s party was earlier tracking the people who supported Kamala, but as their numbers increased, it started making a list of those who did not support Kamala.

After the announcement of Kamala Harris’s name, she has collected 162 million dollars till now. Harris’s strong rivals have supported her.

According to the New York Times, many people working in the White House and associated with Harris’s campaign believe that the announcement of her name will give the party an edge in the election campaign. Harris does not want to make any changes in the leadership of the election campaign. However, she can include one of her advisors in the top body of the campaign.

Kamala’s team worked all night eating pizza
Kamala Harris’s team kept working at her residence throughout the night. The team members ordered pizza and salad from a local food chain at night. By the next night, just 36 hours after Biden withdrew his name, Kamala Harris had received the support of 3100 out of the party’s 4 thousand delegates.

Within 48 hours of Biden’s withdrawal, Kamala Harris had already established her dominance over the party. Two Democratic leaders, Senator Chuck Schumer and Representative Hakeem Jefferies, had also extended their support to her on Tuesday afternoon. By then, Harris had reached Milwaukee as the new face of the Democratic Party.

Why has Barack Obama not yet endorsed Kamala Harris?
After Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the US presidential race, Kamala Harris is certain to become the Democratic candidate. So far, many Democratic leaders have supported Kamala Harris as the party’s presidential candidate. However, former US President Barack Obama has so far maintained a distance.

According to the New York Post, Obama is not happy with Kamala Harris’ candidacy. A member of Biden’s family told that Obama believes that Kamala Harris will not be able to win.

The reasons why Obama has not yet supported Kamala Harris…

Obama is angry with Kamala over border management
A source told the New York Post that according to Obama, “Kamala Harris did not visit the border despite being responsible for the border. She says that illegal immigrants should have health insurance.

She does not recognize the challenges before her. When you are running for a presidency, you have to be careful about what you say and what you don’t say.”

Obama wanted to nominate Arizona senator
According to the source, Obama wanted to withdraw Biden from the candidature. As part of this plan, actor George Clooney wrote an article in which Biden was asked to withdraw from the race. Obama wanted Arizona Senator Mark Kelly to be chosen as the candidate in the Democratic National Convention to be held next month.

At present, Obama is angry because things are not going according to his wishes. That is why he has not come out in support of Kamala Harris. However, NBC News claimed in a report on Thursday that Obama will soon be seen supporting Harris. He is constantly connected with Kamala Harris on the phone.
