Tim Kaine
Hillary Clinton's 2016 running mate whose Senate career has been defined by steady, if unspectacular, work on Foreign Relations and Armed Services — Kaine's longstanding push to repeal and replace the post-9/11 AUMF has been one of the more principled but unrewarded causes in the Senate.

The Case For Tim Kaine
“The longevity argument alone puts them in a category of one. While others burned bright and faded, this figure consistently reinvented and dominated across decades, eras, and cultural shifts that would have destroyed lesser talents.”
“Technically unmatched. The craft here is evident in every performance, every work — the kind of effortless execution that only comes from thousands of hours of mastery made invisible. They make the impossible look inevitable.”
“Commercial success should never be held against artistic legacy. The ability to dominate charts while maintaining critical respect is a skill unto itself — one that this figure has mastered better than any peer in the conversation.”
