Vice-President Kamala Harris - Your autobiography will be a bestseller
Not only in the initial survey values can democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris (59) rejoice in a boom. Five years after the first publication of her autobiography "The Truths We Hold: An American Journey," the book ranks number one, according to the US site "People," on several bestseller lists in the US. The reason for this is clear: With Joe Biden (81) stepping down from the race, Harris is seen as the designated successor in the race for the White House - and thus attracts increased interest.
Online retailer Amazon has seen Harris' book climb to the top spot in the "Biographies of Politicians" category in the US - it is also currently the best-selling memoirs by a woman. The "New York Times" was already a bestseller at the time of publication in 2019, before she took office as Vice President under Joe Biden.
And her 2009 book "Smart on Crime: A Career Prosecutor's Plan to Make Us Safer" is currently topping the charts - in this case in the Criminology section.
Harris is not yet the official challenger of the Republican candidate Donald Trump (78), but a nomination is considered all but assured. Biden had already signaled his support for Harris as his successor in his first address to the nation after his resignation letter, and confirmed it by stating, "She is experienced, tough, and capable. She was an incredible partner for me and a leader for our country. Now the decision is yours, the American people."
At the beginning of the week, CNN had also reported that Harris had more than the required number of delegates to secure her nomination as a presidential candidate.
