CNBC talked to presidential scholar Meena Bose about next steps for the Democrats if President Joe Biden withdraws from the 2024 race. Dr. Bose is professor of political science, executive dean of the Public Policy and Public Service program, and executive director of the Kalikow Center for the Study of the American Presidency.



“The vice president is the logical choice, obviously,” said Dr. Bose, who noted that Kamala Harris has already been vetted, and the fundraising war chest that the Biden campaign has amassed in the current election cycle would transfer to her if she took over the ticket.
