During the nomination process political battles are most likely to occur in what forum?
The modern nomination process includes several primary elections and the nomination is usually wrapped up before the convention. The candidates campaign for these elections by making speeches, making statements to the press and sometimes by a debate with the other candidates. Everything they say of note is reported to the nation, so their differences become public knowledge. Of course, if the nomination is still open at the convention, there would be major battles there, mostly behind the scenes.

What responsibilities do presidential candidates have?
Party nominees have a responsibility to do their best to uphold the ideals of their party and present those ideals to the electorate in a favorable way. They need to be honest with their supporters before their accept the nomination and not hide personal information that would likely cost them the election if it came out during the campaign. Independent candidates are only responsible to be true to themselves and honest in their campaign speeches and what they plan to do if they are elected.
Does the FBI do background checks on presidential candidates?
Someone suggested the Secretary of State investigates candidates. I can tell you that is not so. The Secretary of State does not investigate, it recommends and advises. The FBI investigates. Before I could work in the White House I had to undergo a thorough background investigation by the FBI for the Secret Service. *Candidates for political office, most especially the presidential candidates, do need better regulation. As far as I am aware, there has never been a thorough background check or polygraph of Barack Obama. It is entirely up to the voters to elect to office anyone they wish in spite of their background and make whatever check on the few requirements there are, i.e. age and birth. It is likely ACORN did Obama's background check. Another words, the system is flawed and we often get what we don't wish for.
