if the president lost popular vote and got fewer electoral votes, he/she isn't the president... so that doesnt make sense. but yea, they wouldn't be elected cause they lost both popular and electoral. that's the question right? cause if you mean he lost popular vote but won electoral votes, he would become the president

John Adams was an important leader and had previously ran for President but lost to George Washington. He was always involved in politics therefore running for President was a natural progression in for his career.
No. Not really. He lost the popular vote the year he was elected, 1888, and lost his try for re-election in 1892. He was rather stiff and formal as a person.
Samuel Tilden
A presidential candidate is free to choose anyone he/she wants as a vice-presidential running mate. Realistically, though, the candidate chooses someone from their own party, since their chances of being elected with a running mate from a different party would be minimal. Originally the VP was the candidate with the second greatest number of votes, essentially the one who lost the election. Now the VP is selected as a running mate. A presidential candidate decides who he/she thinks would provide a good "draw" to the voters.
