Kamala Harris campaigns in Mississippi for Democratic candidate Scott Colom

Former Vice President Kamala Harris spoke at a campaign rally in Columbus, Mississippi, on Thursday in support of Democratic Senate candidate Scott Colom. The New York Post, Fox Business, and WREG.com all reported on the event, which took place in a high school gymnasium. The New York Post reported that the audience gave little response when Harris delivered a motivational line, leading her to repeat the phrase to the crowd. [1][2][4]

During her speech, Harris shared advice she gives to young people, telling the audience not to let someone else with limited vision restrict their personal ambition, according to the New York Post. The event comes as KTNV Las Vegas reported that Harris has returned to the campaign trail amid growing speculation regarding the 2028 presidential election. [1][5]

Harris served as the 49th vice president of the United States from 2021 to 2025 under President Joe Biden and was the Democratic nominee in the 2024 presidential election. Before her tenure as vice president, she represented California in the United States Senate from 2017 to 2021 and served as the attorney general of California from 2011 to 2017. [6]

As FTMQ News reported earlier, some political donors consider a potential 2028 presidential campaign by Harris to be a long shot. Her husband, Doug Emhoff, has also privately expressed concerns about her entering the 2028 race. [11]
