If an incumbent president is seeking another term in office who will his party likley nominate?
If an incumbent president is willing and qualified to run for reelection, his party does not contest his nomination, most likely because of the message that would be interpreted if the party does not support its incumbent president. However, that was not always the case. Before the Civil War, several incumbent presidents, including Franklin Pierce in 1856, sought but did not receive their parties' nominations for president.
Whose presidency was better-Tyler's or Washington's?
Washington was by far the better president . Tyler finished out the term of Harrioson and was at odds with his party from the beginning- he really did not have much of a chance as president. He was not nominated for another term by his party.
If an incumbant president is seeking another term in office who will his party likely nominate?
If an incumbent president is seeking a second term in office, his or her party is likely to nominate the president in question. In the U.S., presidents can serve two, 4-year terms.
Who was the first president to be refused nomination for re-election by his party?
John Tyler who took office because of the death of President Taylor, fell out with his Whig party and became the first incumbent president who was not nominated for a second term in 1844. The first president who was actually elected as president and did not get his party's nomination for another term was Franklin Pierce in 1856.
Is an incumbent president guaranteed his party's nomination for re-election?
No, an incumbent president is not guaranteed his party's nomination for re-election. While it is common for the incumbent to be nominated by their party, there have been instances in history where sitting presidents have faced primary challengers from within their own party. The nomination process ultimately depends on the internal politics and dynamics within the party.
Who was the only president whose party did not elect him for another term in the U S?
Franklin Pierce was the only president who was nominated and won for a party that refused to nominate him for a second term. James Buchanan also failed to get a nomination for a second term, but his situation was different in that his party split up over the slavery issue. "Accidental" presidents Tyler, Fillmore, Andrew Johnson and Arthur, who were never nominated for the presidency but became president on the death of the president, also failed to be nominated by their parties for a another term.
Does any scenario exist that would allow a sitting president NOT to be transitioned out of office at the end of the term?
I may not understand your question-- a president could be re-elected and so would stay in office for another term after his first term ended.
Is a sitting president automatically the candidate for a second term?
No. Although the incumbent president is very likely to be nominated for a second term, if there is strong reason to be believe that he will not win re-election and if another attractive candidate emerges, an incumbent president can fail to get the nomination.
