    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    As some of his fellow Democrats have encouraged Biden to exit the campaign, the president has pointed to support from other elected officials in the party, particularly governors.

    Green, who was a physician on Hawaii’s Big Island before he was elected governor, said everyone has parents or grandparents who have moments that aren’t that great or pauses in their ability to express themselves clearly.

    Green said the timeline of a few days for a decision anticipates pressure that might be placed on Biden after members of Congress return this week to Capitol Hill.

    Harris “is a powerful person, she is also a thought-leading woman, she’s an African American who was (California’s) attorney general,” Green said.

    Green, whose wife’s uncle was Biden’s college roommate, also provided insight into last week’s meeting that governors had with the president.

    He also discounted any assertion that advisers crafted the meeting to have governors supportive of Biden speak first to quell any dissent.
