In the United States of America, it's were a number of presidential canadiates will race against each other to become President of the United States of America. There are also parties involved. It depends on what you want to determine what party you want to be in, there are the Democrates and the Republican parties. To become president, you must have a degree in criminal justice and must have been born in the United States to become president in the United States. There is also an age limit too. You must be 35 years old. There are also terms. Each term is four years. A single president can only serve for two terms in a row. To become president, citizens of the United States vote on the presidential canadiate that they believe should win the election. So to become president, you also need a lot of money. Most of your money will come from donations and contributions. Like I said, you will need a lot of money, in the Bush and Gore campaign, they spent a total of about $850 Million. So, like I said you will need a lot of money to become president, so when you do decide to become president, make a good speech and have a good reason to become president, because people vote on you for what they want in their society.

Elections for President and Vice President of the United States are indirect elections in which voters cast ballots for a slate of electors of the U.S. Electoral College, who in turn directly elect the President and Vice President. They occur quadrennially (the count beginning with the year 1792) on Election Day, the Tuesday between November 2 and 8,[1] coinciding with the general elections of various other federal, states and local races. The most recent presidential election occurred on November 4, 2008, with the next one scheduled for November 6, 2012.
