They each chose a VP nominee. Tim Kaine (Democratic) and Mike Pence (Republican). Electoral colleges and the current president pick a side and often times the election is won by the electoral colleges. This is because the founding fathers believed the average human was not educated enough. Originally the presidential candidate became the VP of the united states, as there were no political parties. This process was changed by Thomas Jefferson in 1804. It was the 12th amendment. Aaron Burr was the original VP, but when the law changed, he picked James Madison.]]> 2016-09-26 18:55:50 UTC https://padlet.com/andersons2/9lqb75fm31m/wish/126488698 Expectations andersons2 https://padlet.com/andersons2/9lqb75fm31m/wish/126489759 To run the country, make crucial decisions, pass bills, and control the US army.

Brings young adults into the political world and connects them to people with similar opinions on the parties and the candidates. 2. If everybody votes it shows how the majority of the country feels. It brings our nation closer together making us safer. In the first couple of elections only rich men who owened property could vote. But no women could vote. Now every legal adult (18) who is a citizen of the United States can vote. It is a right and a way our democracy stays together]]> 2016-09-26 19:04:44 UTC https://padlet.com/andersons2/9lqb75fm31m/wish/126491255 Where the Process takes place  angelinar https://padlet.com/andersons2/9lqb75fm31m/wish/126491270 The process takes place at the National Convention party.  Republican Convention- Cleveland and Ohio .
