WASHINGTON — Kamala Harris, who previously served as vice president, has sparked speculation about a potential future presidential run during a fresh interview.

Chatting with Lauren Kuenssberg of the BBC, Harris gave her most pronounced hint yet of a possible 2028 White House endeavor. The complete interview will be broadcast on Sunday.

“I am not done,” Harris stated emphatically to the BBC. “Service is in my DNA, and it has defined my career.”

Expressing confidence that her grandnieces will witness a female president within their lifetimes, Harris was asked if she might be that woman. Her response was, “Possibly.”

The former vice president confirmed that she has not made an official decision to run for the White House again. 

For a while, Harris has maintained she has made no decision about her own political future. But she made clear that she sees herself as a player in the Democratic Party and a voice in the national discourse.

“I am a leader of the party,” she told the AP on Oct. 18. “I take seriously that responsibility and duty that I feel” as the previous nominee. That “includes traveling the country talking and mostly listening with folks,” she said, and “getting folks ready to fight in the midterms” in 2026.

Harris, 60, also addressed the polls in the BBC interview and how some have placed her as an outsider on the Democratic ticket. 

“If I listened to polls I would have not run for my first office, or my second office,” Harris told Kuenssberg. “And I certainly wouldn’t be sitting here.”
