In photos: Presidential candidate Kamala Harris

[WeekiWater]

Kamala Harris, a US senator from California who previously served as the state's attorney general, launched her presidential campaign in January and promised to be a fighter "for the people."

"We are here because the American Dream and our American democracy are under attack and on the line like never before," she said in her birthplace of Oakland. "We are here at this moment in time because we must answer a fundamental question. Who are we? Who are we as Americans? So, let's answer that question to the world and each other right here and right now. America: We are better than this."

Harris is the daughter of Jamaican and Indian immigrants and grew up attending both a Baptist church and a Hindu temple.

Her allies believe that her life's work as a prosecutor will help set her apart from the crowded Democratic field. Her signs carry her campaign theme "Kamala Harris for the people," the words that she spoke each time she rose in the courtroom as a prosecutor.

"Her name, Kamala, comes from the Sanskrit word for the lotus flower".
