The final choice is made by the electoral college, just as the choice for president is made. In every state, the vice presidential candidate appears on the ballot along with the presidential candidate; they run as a team.

The Presidential Candidate's main purpose in picking the Vice President is "balancing the ticket." To "balance the ticket" is to find a VP Candidate that deposits values into a Presidential campaign that will bring support from voters that were not previously inclined to vote for that candidate.
