In the recent episode of 'Lest We Forget Historical,' host Lillian Cauldwell explores the process by which potential presidential candidates select their vice-presidential running mates. The selection of a vice president is a rigorous, highly selective, and thoroughly documented process. Governors and senators are often favored for their experience in the executive branch at the state level. Aaron Dusso, Associate Professor of Political Science at Indiana University, explained to the Washington Examiner that this preference stems from their executive experience. A list of potential candidates is created, and those being considered for vice president receive vetting materials.
