Democrat vice presidential candidate Sen. Tim Kaine says the United States is far behind some Muslim countries in treating women equally because it is “below the global average” in the percentage of women in elected office.
Kaine said in a speech at a rally in Fayetteville, North Carolina Tuesday:
It took 144 years before women even got the right to vote in this country. What were we thinking when we said equality mattered, but no. One hundred and forty-four years. It took us that long to say in 1920, to say women get a right to vote. And now we’re 96 years later and we have just nominated a woman. We know we haven’t had a woman president.
Kaine complained that, today, only 19 percent of members of Congress are women.
“That’s the best job we’ve ever done,” he ridiculed the U.S., continuing that countries such as Afghanistan, Iraq, and Rwanda have higher percentages of women in elected office.

CROOKED Hillary is carrying Tim Kaine's balls in her purse.
Maybe they’re like me. I’m a female, and I don’t particularly want a female President.
Well, maybe if she was something like Margaret Thatcher. But she probably wouldn’t be.
“...probably...”??????
However, implied in his comment is an acknowledgement that the muzzies treat their women not as equals.
“...Tim Kaine says the United States is far behind some Muslim countries in treating women equally because it is “below the global average” in the percentage of women in elected office.”
No?
Here are some statistics. The first one speaks in general terms. Back to find actual lists.

This has more charts but tends to list USA in the category Americas where our 19% in Congress tends to drag the figures down.

I am very impressed by your research. Will have to check the links later. Sad that the MSM would never think to verify what Kaine is saying.
Tim Kaine is even more dangerous than Hillary
And I am sure he means Butto who was assassinated......not
move to Iraq or Afganistan, then, Kaine, where women have to hold up IDs with a photo to show what face is under their black bags
Gadzoons, this man is even more idiotic that we imagined.
I’d be suspicious of that tall one in grey... especially if there is a deep voice. The man-hands don’t help either.
It’s not that I want or don’t want a female President. No female that I want has run yet.
Hildabeast picked the right guy: all talk and no sunbstance, just like Hittlery.
Assassinated.
Hillary might say something like this, but she doesn’t really believe it herself
She didn’t drink the koolaid, she just wants us to drink it,
Kaine says this and he truly believes it, you can see it in his eyes, Kaine drunk the koolaid,
I’m not sure which one is more frightening to have in the Office of President,
Exactly. Leftists like whichever group hates America and its freedoms.
