Every four years citizens of the United States cast their vote in
the election process of their Chief Executive - the President of
the United States. But many students and adults alike do not
understand the process by which we elect our president. Are we
really casting a vote directly for one of them or for an elector,
and what is the difference? And going backwards from November, how
did those men and/or women end up on the November ballot in the
first place? What is the process of a political party choosing
their candidate, through this confusing array of caucuses and
primaries that have been held? This little book walks through the
constitutional background and basis for this critical office, and
then goes through the nomination process of caucuses and primaries,
ending with the electoral college process that completes the cycle
every four years. (Understanding Presidential Elections includes
the booklet, Understanding the Electoral College, so you will not
need to purchase that book separately.)
Catherine has been studying and teaching the Constitution for
almost ten years. She understands the frustrations of trying to
teach it but not knowing where to start. Out of her own studies
came a deeper understanding of the importance, then and now, of
this critical document. That led to a deep desire to share the
Constitution with her own students and to help others do the same.
Here she brings it to life in its historic context, along with many
of the other documents that paved the way for the foundation of our
government.
