Vice President Kamala Harris was one of the first senators who openly supported Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) Green New Deal — which, a memo noted, aimed to provide economic security to those “unwilling” to work.
In February 2019, Harris formally announced that she was proud to cosponsor Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Ed Markey’s (D-MA) Green New Deal:
I’m proud to co-sponsor @AOC and @EdMarkey's Green New Deal. We must aggressively tackle climate change which poses an existential threat to our nation.
— Kamala Harris (@KamalaHarris) February 7, 2019
What is particularly notable about this is that Harris, who ran for president that year, appeared to be one of the first Democrat contenders to endorse Ocasio-Cortez’s specific legislation, rather than the mere ideals of the Green New Deal alone.
That specific measure — pushed by Ocasio-Cortez and Markey — asserts that “human activity is the dominant cause of observed climate change over the past century,” also deeming climate change itself a “direct threat” to national security.

Crazy lefty. Well at least she isn’t saying eating meat is causing climate change …
Oh wait what’s this?
Kamala Harris wants to control how much red meat you eat because of climate change

Question: When was the last time a sitting president eligible for re-election nevertheless declined to run, in favor of his vice president?
And what conflicts, tensions, and/or paradoxes might that elicit?
(Let's of course acknowledge that Kamala has not yet received her party's nomination - though, strangely, Biden is talking as though that were a foregone conclusion and/or he was entitled to "pass the torch" to a candidate of HIS choice.)

Really hoping they have all this stuff at the ready to define this skank. There is a small window to define your opponent especially when the media establishment is already working against you.
Own answer: 1968 (V.P. Hubert Humphrey running for President - LBJ would have been eligible to run himself, but chose not to).

Didn’t their leader once proclaim that he who will not work, neither shall he eat?
Did LBJ actually endorse Humphrey?
to ‘Those Unwilling to Work’, I, am unwilling to feed you... ESAD!!!
No. He feared his endorsement was more harm than good . IfRFK is not assassinated he has the upper hand. McCarthy had gone from running as a protest to being hungry for the job. He hated the RFK jumped in only after he had shown LBJ’s weakness that forced him out. He thought Kennedy a pure opportunist. He approached Kennedy before Cal primary and offered that if Kennedy withdrew and endorsed him he would serve only one term and stand aside for Kennedy in 72.As one who cast his first vote in 68 I think, even with this chaotic year, that it was the most interesting political year in my lifetime.
climate change itself a “direct threat” to national security.

Yes, climate change is a direct thread to national security!
It causes us to disarm, loose our industry, let China to build aggressive army, etc.
If we are going to continue Biden/Harris destruction of our economy, yes, the Chinese will have an easy task to take us over!
Did I get you right?
Regards,
McCarthy approached Kennedy to drop out and support him. Humphrey was running against both. Johnson supported Humphrey and through his myriad connections especiallt Daley he felt he could control the convention. The great percentage of delegates were not chosen by primary and a little patronage goes a long way. The Marilyn stuff would have come out and Hoover was ready to destroy Bobby. His being killed was not in Johnson’s interest.
