US Vice President Kamala Harris said she was ready to serve as leader, in a Wall Street Journal interview published Monday, as voter concerns mount about President Joe Biden’s age in an election year.
The 59-year-old Harris has faced growing scrutiny about her own abilities as the first in line to the presidency should Democrat Biden, 81, be incapacitated or stand down.
“I am ready to serve. There’s no question about that,” Harris told the newsmen when asked whether voters’ concerns about Biden’s age meant she must convince them of her credentials.
