Tim Kaine Backs Hillary Clinton For President

Virginia Senator Tim Kaine will back Hillary Clinton for president if she decides to run in 2016and he thinks she should.

Kaine was in Columbia, S.C. as the keynote speaker at the South Carolina Jefferson Jackson Dinner.

Kaine told the South Carolina Womens Democratic Council during a special breakfast function that he backed Clinton because of her experience and her history of engaging important domestic issues.

Said Kaine, She is a classic American optimist with the background and experiences necessary to lead this country in a very complicated world.

He mentioned that he would be starting his fifth year in the Senate in 2017.

Kaine said he considered Clinton someone he knew for certain that he would want to be working with in the White House on all fronts.

He acknowledged that sexism would be a major factor, making Clintons journey towards the presidency a difficult one.

If it were easy for women to achieve top leadership spots in this country, said Kaine, Congress would have more than 18 percent women serving.

Because of perceived racial politics in the country during 2006, few believed that President Barack Obama had a chance.

One of those few who backed Obama early on was Senator Kaine.
