00:00Wow, Julie, thank you so much.

00:15I've known Julie a long, long time, going back to her days working in Kamala's Senate

00:20office.

00:21And we've put a lot of time together out on the road on the last campaign, and I can't

00:26think of anyone better to be leading this campaign.

00:30So thank you so much.

00:31You're the best.

00:32I was just very emotional listening to President Biden just then.

00:40I was emotional before I heard that because of who he is and what he represents, the dignity,

00:47the empathy.

00:50He's had my back, personally.

00:52Some of my toughest moments as second gentleman, one, leaving the career that I loved.

00:58It was always the president who came up to me and said, look, I know, I know, kid, you're

01:01a great lawyer.

01:02I know this must have been tough.

01:04But what better way to leave that than to support your wife, who you love so much, and

01:10your country that you love so much?

01:15And it's hard to believe it was about four years ago, the first time I came to Wilmington

01:21is when she got the call from President then-candidate Biden to be on the ticket.

01:28And we came here the next day, we went to their home, and he said with Dr. Biden, welcome

01:34to the family.

01:35You're now Bidens.

01:38And they made us cookies.

01:42And they called our kids.

01:45And they called my parents.

01:48This was day one four years ago.

01:52And now look where we are now, to have been able to serve as second gentleman with him

01:56as our president, Dr. Biden as our first lady.

02:01Unbelievable.

02:03And now, now I get to support my wife, Kamala Harris, running for president of the United

02:12States.

02:13Let me tell you something.

02:20We are going to win this election.

02:21We are on the right side of every single issue, and we have this team right here, and thousands

02:30of others all around the country.

02:31How do I know?

02:32Because I've been traveling all around the country, and I've met them.

02:36We have an amazing team, you have done an amazing job, and you're going to continue

02:41to do that so we can elect Kamala Harris as the next president of the United States

02:47of America.

02:48So let's hear it for Kamala Harris.
