No. In the United States there is two powerful political parties. Each has men who run in the primary election and from the man who wins the primary becomes the candidate who is selected at a party convention. The conventions meet and people from across the United States come to represent their state. On the last night they vote for the man who has won the primary election and the ticket. The ticket is also the man chosen by the presidential canadate for the office of Vice President. The VP is selcted for various reasons and for what he can bring to the ticket to help them win.
