Former Vice President Kamala Harris was asked to list the “most effective presidents in American history,” and her response omitted former President Joe Biden , under whom she served.
Harris became the Democratic nominee in the summer of 2024 after Biden, who was dogged by bad poll numbers at the time, imploded during a debate against Donald Trump .
During a rambling response about the national debt that ended with the declaration , “We finally beat Medicare.”
Biden dropped his reelection bid three weeks later and threw his support behind Harris, who ran an abbreviated campaign using some of Biden’s campaign staffers.
She lost both the electoral vote count and the popular vote to Trump.
However, there is speculation that she may run again in 2028.
On Friday night, Harris spoke at the National Urban League in New York, where President Marc Morial asked the former veep to rank her top presidents.
“In your view, rank the top three most effective presidents in American history,” he said.
“Oh Marc, don’t make me do that,” Harris replied, before naming Franklin Roosevelt .
“He did some good things,” she said.
“In fact, it was he who talked about the expansion of the Supreme Court, and then he got ferocious… blowback for that.
Social Security.
When I think about what he did in terms of investing in the people during dire times and talking about the role and responsibility of government, that it should not just be about the benevolence of community organizations or just interpersonal relationships.
The government has a role.
I think he was a very important president.”
She went on to list John F.
Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson .
“I credit Kennedy, of course, in terms of what he laid the groundwork for,” Harris stated.
“And then Johnson followed up on.”
She later added, “And then of course, Barack Obama and what he did with the Affordable Care Act, among many things.
But in particular, if we had one issue that’s been ailing America for generations, which is a healthcare system that has failed anyone other than the rich, and addressing the way that he did and took a lot of heat for it, I think he’s one of the greatest presidents.”
In her book released last year, Harris wrote that Biden, who is 83, made the “reckless” decision to run again because of his “ego.”
