    Shocking the only president that wasn’t elected* made this decision.

    *Besides Bush (Handed presidency by supreme Court) and kinda Trump (lost popular vote)

      We’ve had 3 assassinated presidents so at least 3 vice presidents became president but weren’t voted into the office.

        So technically you’re incorrect and totally missed my point. Nixon’s VP when he was elected was Spiro Agnew, who was voted into office with Nixon. He got in trouble for corruption in Baltimore and stepped down. Ford was his replacement… Nobody even had a choice with Ford…For example I did not vote for McCain because Pailn was a terrible alternative… When you vote for president you’re voting for both knowing what you get.
