Kamala Harris and Book Deal

Kamala Harris, the soon-to-be former vice president and two-time Democratic presidential candidate, is being pursued by major publishers with offers of an advance potentially reaching $20 million, according to DailyMail.com. This book is expected to provide an insider’s view of President Joe Biden's White House and Harris's failed presidential campaign.

An insider revealed to DailyMail.com that publishing offers started coming in immediately following her defeat to Trump. The upcoming book will detail the dynamics of her relationship with Joe Biden, including successes and challenges encountered in the Oval Office and her campaign.

While the proposed advance is around $20 million, it could increase when other publishing rights are considered. Such advances aren't rare; Barack and Michelle Obama secured a $65 million advance in 2017, while Bill Clinton received $10 million in 2001.

An executive from a prominent liberal publishing house noted that Harris, as second-in-command, has intimate insight into the administration's operations and has been deeply involved in presidential decisions, providing her with significant material for the book.

The overall earning potential for the project may rise further due to interest in TV, movie rights, and serial rights with magazines and newspapers. Netflix is rumored to be exploring a deal with the vice president, similar to the one secured by the Obamas.
