Kamala Harris brings an overlooked and underappreciated strength to the Democratic ticket in 2024 , says Julian Zelizer .
Zelizer: As the first woman and person of color to hold such an office, Harris carries a powerful symbolic resonance for young people that previous (white, male) vice presidents didn’t.
He says she has shown that she will defend young people’s rights and their lives as they come under siege by Republicans .
Kamala Harris' popularity among young people also comes at a time when many have expressed worries about Biden ’s age.
With less than 14 months before Election Day 2024 , the calls to drop Harris from the ticket may get stronger.
Let her be for Biden what Biden was for Barack Obama — an essential partner in governance and a close friend.
