0:51Now PlayingRep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) voiced some uncertainty on Sunday when asked if Vice President Kamala Harris is the future of the Democratic Party.
“I see her as a part of that future. Absolutely,” Clyburn, 83, told NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
“She could very well be [the future]. I think she is running a very good campaign,” he added.
Clyburn, who was credited with throwing a lifeline to then-candidate Joe Biden’s fledgling 2020 presidential campaign, still lavished praise on Harris.
“I look to her as a successor to this president, but I also know the history of that as well. It’s not a given. You don’t automatically move up,” he said.
