Tim Kaine endorses Joe Biden ahead of Super Tuesday
“Democrats have many good public servants and admirable people running for President. I will vote in the Virginia presidential primary for Joe Biden,” Kaine said in a statement.
“Vice President Biden worked hand-in-hand with President Obama to rescue the American economy from catastrophe, expand health care to millions of people, revive creative diplomacy to keep Americans safe, tackle global challenges like climate change, and appoint high-quality people across the executive and judicial branches of our government,” Kaine said.
“America is afflicted by a President who delights in division, cruelty, lies, chaos, and self-congratulation. We are better than that, and Americans deserve better in the Oval Office,” Kaine said.
“It is sad to have a President who no one holds up as a role model for America’s kids. By contrast, Joe Biden has exemplary heart, character, and experience. He reminds me of Harry S. Truman, an outwardly ordinary man whose work ethic, faith in the goodness of everyday Americans, and love of country made him a great President. I am proud to vote for Joe Biden,” he added.
Though most Democratic senators have stayed away from endorsing in the primary, several including Sens. Christopher Coons (Del.), Doug Jones (Ala.), Tom Carper (Del.) and Dianne Feinstein (Calif.) have said they will support Biden.
