Former President Barack Obama and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz are set to campaign together in Madison, Wisconsin, on Tuesday, as announced by the Harris campaign. This event in the battleground state will mark Obama's first joint appearance with Walz since the latter was named the Democratic vice presidential nominee.
Obama has been actively supporting the campaign of Kamala Harris, the Democratic vice presidential candidate. Recently, he spoke at an event in Pennsylvania as part of his campaign efforts. During his engagements, Obama addressed the issue of Black men who may be hesitant to support Harris' presidential bid. He emphasized that it is crucial for everyone to participate in the election process and stated that it is not acceptable to sit out this election. Obama also suggested that some Black men might be reluctant to vote for Harris due to her gender, highlighting the importance of overcoming such barriers.
