Kamala Harris made history in 2020, becoming the first woman, first Asian-American and first black vice-president in the history of the United States. She made it onto the Biden ticket despite struggling to make a positive impression on Democratic party voters during her own attempt to secure the nomination, eventually dropping out before the first primary contest. With her personal poll numbers sagging, some within the party have reportedly contemplated replacing her altogether ahead of the November 2024 presidential election.

We look at her performance in the job so far, and examine the role of vice-president. In this episode, James Reynolds is joined by the 大象传媒鈥檚 US special correspondent Katty Kay, and former 大象传媒 North America correspondent Jamie Coomarasamy.
