Vice President Kamala Harris kicking off her presidential run in Wisconsin Wednesday after securing enough delegates to win the Democratic nomination.
00:11.1
A survey by the Associated Press on Monday showed that Harris had received the endorsement of more than 1,976 delegates needed to bag the nomination in the first round of voting.
00:23.2
By launching her first campaign rally in West Allis, Wisconsin, Harris actively underscores the state's crucial role in her campaign strategy.
00:37.6
West Allis, a suburb of Milwaukee, has a growing minority population.
00:43.2
Filipino-American Angelito Tenorio is campaigning to represent this district for state assembly.
00:49.5
Filipino-American community leader Angelica Verona Camara
00:53.2
was at the historic event.
00:55.7
It's exciting, especially to be a Phil-Am, especially to be a member of the AAPI community.
01:01.3
This is very important because this is a strong woman and it's an amazing time for diversity and inclusion and equality.
01:13.7
Harris would be the first Black and Asian-American woman to become the presidential nominee of a major party.
01:20.6
Phil-Am political strategist Cheryl Kinyo-Blundell,
01:23.8
says Harris' campaign still has to make an effort to reach those voting blocs.
01:28.9
It's being able to convince Asian and Black and Hispanic voters, especially male Black, Hispanic and Asian voters,
01:40.6
to come out to the polls and vote for her.
01:42.7
She needs to be able to create that case.
01:47.2
Phil-Am Brad Baldia, a member of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee,
01:51.6
says that although Harris' campaign is not going to be a lot of fun,
01:53.2
since Harris has been the highest second-in-command in the past three years,
01:56.6
she still has to reintroduce herself to the American voters.
02:00.6
I think people need to get to know her better because as a vice president,
02:04.7
you're not as visible as the president and that's a reality of it.
02:10.7
They need to be able to have a sense of what her leadership style is.
02:17.0
Bludgett and Baldia agree that Harris' vice presidential choice
02:20.6
will be one of the most important decisions for her.
02:23.2
The American people still need a white guy.
02:27.8
If it was Biden running again or another white guy running again for president,
02:36.1
that's where you can pick a minority or a woman.
02:40.2
But I think that the American public still needs to see that normalcy, so to speak,
02:47.4
in a presidential candidate.
02:51.1
And having a white man...
02:53.2
A white man on her ticket would boost her numbers.
02:57.4
Even Pennsylvania, the Pennsylvania governor, Josh Shapiro,
03:01.3
great governor, great legislator, great prosecutor.
03:07.0
However, he's Jewish.
03:09.9
So people that you're trying to bring over,
03:13.8
like the independent swing voters, the Haley voters,
03:17.7
they're going to want to see a man, a white man, be her VP pick.
03:23.2
But Bludgett says beyond strategic approach,
03:26.0
Harris has to consider the relationship factor.
03:29.0
They're going to get someone that is popular,
03:31.4
that is in a battleground state,
03:33.7
that maybe speaks to a different...
03:38.3
has other issues that are very important that she wants to emphasize.
03:44.4
But I think it's about getting someone that also she gets along with.
03:49.9
You need to have...
03:53.2
someone that you can trust and also has similar values and policy beliefs.
04:04.4
Although Harris has secured enough delegates to clinch the party's nomination,
04:10.0
it's not yet official.
04:11.6
Democratic delegates can still vote for any candidate they prefer
04:15.4
at the party's convention next month in Chicago.
