What was John Tyler's nickname?
His Accidency, The President Without a Party, and Traitor Tyler were all given to John Tyler while he was president. His Accidency because he became president by "accident". The President without a Party because his party, the Whigs, disowned him midway through his first year in office. He turned acainst his friends and long time allys causing all his cabinet members to resign. This prompted Traitor Tyler.
Why would the president appoint people who are members of his same political party?
It is only natural for the President to appoint people who share his views on government and will work to carry out his programs. Such people are more likely to be found in his own party. A first term president needs to have party support to run for re-election and one way to gain support is through appointments. He may also need to repay people who have helped him get elected the first time by making them an ambassador.
What does the executive branch refer to?
The President and the people who work with the President.
How do you run for president with out a party?
You need a party of some sort just to help you do the busy work of collecting the signatures needed to file to get on the ballot. You have to do this separately in each state. If you are rich enough you can hire people to be your party. If you want to run without any chance to win , you can conduct a write-in campaign-- just ask people to write your name in.
What group of agencies work most closely with the president?
No agencies work with the president. Members of his cabinet are usually the head of various departments.
