In a CNN interview Biden said it would be great to have a woman on the ticket and acknowledged it could be Kamala Harris but he would not commit to selecting her. He argued most Democrats are center-left and prepared rivals may attack him on debate stage. Harris challenged his bus desegregation stance years ago.
