Clinton Says Policy Plan List a ‘Woman Thing'; Kaine Says She's a Puerto Rican Ally

"I've got plans for everything. You know how we women are"

Hillary Clinton is chalking up her lengthy list of policy proposals to her penchant for planning.

At a rally in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Sunday, Clinton joked, "Maybe it's kind of a woman thing. We make lists. We make our lists, then we try to figure out what we're going to get done and cross it off."

Earlier in the day, at a church in Durham, Clinton said: "I've got plans for everything. You know how we women are."

Clinton likes to note that she's put all her plans in a book. She says it's called "Stronger Together" and she penned it with running mate Tim Kaine.

Puerto Rico would have a strong ally in the White House if Clinton wins on Election Day, says Kaine.

Speaking to supporters in Orlando, Florida, Kaine said Sunday he and Clinton take seriously Puerto Rico's financial problems and difficulties dealing with the Zika virus. 

Tens of thousands of Puerto Ricans have moved from the island to Central Florida, and the Clinton campaign has made a concerted effort to shore up support among them.

Kaine has been a key part of the Clinton campaign's outreach to Hispanic Americans and delivered part of his remarks Sunday in Spanish.
