As the US Presidential election slowly ambles towards its home stretch, the Democratic candidate for the elections Hillary Clinton has announced her running mate and he is none other than the Virginia Senator Tim Kaine, whom she described as 'a man who's devoted his life to fighting others' in a tweet announcing the development. Hillary Clinton tweeted, "I'm thrilled to announce my running mate, @TimKaine, a man who's devoted his life to fighting for others. -H," As the whole thing was being discussed on social media, Mr. Kaine responded to the news on Twitter as well by Tweeting,  "Just got off the phone with Hillary. I'm honored to be her running mate. Can't wait to hit the trail tomorrow in Miami!" 

A report on CNN stated, "She will introduce her new partner at a campaign rally Saturday in Miami, a recognition of Florida's pivotal importance in the fall. It's also a chance for Kaine, a fluent Spanish speaker, to introduce Clinton to Latino voters, a critical slice of the electorate in her quest to defeat Donald Trump."

The report went on to state the reasons and chain of events that led to Hillary Clinton choosing Mr. Kaine as her running mate, "The announcement came on the heels of an attack in Munich, Germany, that dominated the afternoon news cycle. The Clinton campaign deliberated over how to avoid a split-screen scenario that could be perceived as insensitive, but in the end, proceeded with its plan to make the unveil on Friday.Clinton's decision to choose Kaine began when John Podesta brought the candidate two-dozen binders to her home in Chappaqua, New York, in April, according to a campaign aide. Last week, Clinton and Kaine spent 90 minutes together, followed by another meeting on Saturday that brought together the two families, including Clinton's husband, daughter and son-in-law, as well as Kaine's wife.Ultimately, Clinton was swayed by her personal comfort with Kaine, as well as the belief that the senator is fully prepared to do the job. On Friday, Clinton called Kaine around 7:30 p.m., then spoke with President Barack Obama.The President later praised Clinton's choice, telling supporters in a fundraising email Saturday that "Tim is a good man. He's a true progressive. And he will make a great vice president."It may be an anti-establishment year, but Clinton's running mate is an insider: A senator and former governor from the critical battleground of Virginia and a former chairman of the Democratic National Committee."
