The official declaration finally ended any lingering suspense over Mr. Biden’s intentions and effectively cleared the way to another nomination for the president, barring unforeseen developments. While he had repeatedly and consistently said he intended to run, Mr. Biden stoked renewed speculation by delaying his kickoff for months. Now his team can assemble the formal structure of a campaign organization and raise money to finance it.

The California native went on to work for then-Sen. Kamala Harris before joining Harris’s presidential campaign, according to her bio on the White House’s website. The deputy campaign manager of the Biden-Harris campaign was Chvez Rodriguez.

He said that he was abridged to the next generation during his 2020 campaign, but he was not ready to hand over the torch yet. His antipathy towards Mr. Trump helped propel his decision to be a Democrat and keep the criminal indicted and impeached former president out of the White House.

In offering himself as a candidate again, Mr. Biden is asking Americans to trust him with the powers of the commander in chief well into his ninth decade. At age 80, Mr. Biden is already the oldest president in American history, and, if he were to win, he would be 86 at the end of a second term, nearly nine years older than Ronald Reagan was when he left the White House in 1989. Mr. Trump, no youngster at 76, would himself outlast every president by age other than Mr. Biden if he were restored to the Oval Office and finished his new term at 82.

As Mr. Biden formally kicked off his campaign, he appeared at this point to be a virtual lock to win his party’s nomination. While many Democrats had hoped he would cede to a younger candidate, no formidable challenger for the nomination has emerged. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a son of the assassinated Senator, has announced he is running for president, but he poses little threat to the incumbent president.

She is also the granddaughter of the late labor leader César Chávez, who advocated for the rights of farm workers and helped found the United Farm Workers union, and the daughter of UFW president emeritus Arturo Rodriguez. Before entering politics, Chávez Rodriguez was the director of programs at the Cesar E. Chavez Foundation.

She told a group of George Washington University students last year that seeing that community organizing up close in her youth was a foundational experience.

“Growing up, I was very impressed with the way people were fighting for those who didn’t have a voice and then to be given the tools to fight back,” Rodriguez said. The power dynamics are pretty intense.”

When Barack Obama, a fellow community leader, announced his bid for president, she was excited. In 2008 she began knocking on doors for his campaign. “He really elevated the role of organizing and service,” Chávez Rodriguez told the GWU students.

According to an Associated Press story, Cecilia Munoz, who ran that office during the Obama administration, stated that Chvez Rodriguez had the job because of her own work.
