Hillary Clinton, the United States presidential candidate under the Democratic Party has selected Tim Kaine (Virginia Senator) as her running mate. Hillary’s months search for her vice president ended on Friday, July 22, 2016 when she announced that she called Tim and offered him the job and he accepted.
This is really nice because the two (Hillary and Tim) have the same ideologies and they are insiders in the United States government. Tim Kaine is a steady and seasoned hand in government (he was a former mayor of Richmond, former governor of Virginia and now United States senator). Hillary Clinton is a seasoned hand in U.S government too (former first lady of Arkansas, former first lady of United States, former U.S senator from New York and former United States Secretary of state). Tim Kaine and Hillary Clinton are knowledgeable on foreign policies, both have similar temperament and worldview and could fit easily with their team inside the White House. Tim served on Senate committees overseeing armed services and foreign relations. His modest upbringing near Kansas City as the son of a welder would help Hillary Clinton reach deep into her enemy’s territory but Donald Trump’s choice of Pence offers him no such advantage.
