The Clinton-Kaine Debut

How he could hurt Clinton: More of a moderate, Kaine might not satisfy the Democratic Party’s activist base.

“He also is a United States senator who serves on both the Foreign Relations Committee and the Armed Services Committee, and is very fluent in national security issues which is going to be increasingly important apparently in this election”. “Bernie fought for nothing!” he said.

In her speech, Clinton said she and Kaine are in the race to send a positive message and not negative one as was done by Trump during Republican National Convention in Cleveland.

Kaine endorsed Clinton in 2014 before she even announced she was running for President, but they have’t always seen eye-to-eye.

I spoke with many voters here in western MA that said they will need to do more research on both vice presidential candidates before heading to the polls.

To Clinton, Kaine’s deep background in politics made him the flawless choice to take the presidential reins if needed. Clinton said Kaine as governor worked with Republicans and helped his home state navigate the Great Recession without sacrificing funding for education. Sanders said on CNN’s “State of the Union” when asked about Kaine. They had been in Miami at midday for his first appearance with Clinton since joining her campaign.

He was referring to former governor Robert McDonnell, a onetime rising star in the Republican Party, found guilty in 2014 of using his influence to help a local business owner in exchange for gifts and loans. The couple has three children together.

But in the end, Clinton decided that Kaine was the best man for the job. “And Donald Trump is the guy who’s the voice of the outsider”.

“Tim Kaine, I guess you could say, is the consummate party insider”, said Anthony Neal, Buffalo State political science professor.

“In our administration in the first 100 days we’ll put forward a comprehensive immigration reform package that includes a path to citizenship”, he shouted. “I figured it wouldn’t be Bernie Sanders, I know there’s some bad blood between the two of them”.

“Tim Kaine has been praising the Trans Pacific Partnership and has been pushing hard to get it approved”.

Kaine accepted Clinton’s offer to be the candidate for vice president Friday night.

“This is his ‘hood, this is Kaine country”, said Wolf. “Kaine are right in the middle of the Washington insider rigged system”, Giuliani said.
