This comprehensive and up-to-date analysis provides an accessible and understandable overview of how we choose our president and how the process has developed throughout our history. Every stage of the selection process is uncovered and made plain: the candidate's decision to enter the race, campaign strategy and fundraising, primaries and caucuses, national party conventions, the general election campaign, and the electoral college. The book also looks at the transition period when presidents-elect assemble their White House staffs and contains detailed historical summaries of every election from 1789 to 1996, as well as abundant illustrations and a clear, detailed bibliography and index.
