Michelle Obama won't comment on Biden apology, holds off on endorsement at Essence Festival.
Six Democratic presidential candidates took the stage at the Essence Festival on Saturday, but it was a former inhabitant of the White House who got a rock star's welcome -- regardless of her tendency to deflect questions on the 2020 election.
Sen. Harris, the only black woman in the Senate, took special exception to Biden's comments during the first Democratic debate two weeks ago. The former first lady also said her and her husband would not be endorsing any candidate from the crowded field, saying they would support whomever wins the primary.
"I didn't want it to look like he was putting his thumb on the scale," the former vice president told"The View" in April.
