Did Fredrick Douglass become Vice President
Frederick Douglass WAS a Republican. He stated so publicly, in print and speeches throughout his adult life calling it "the party of freedom and progress." "I recognize the Republican Party as the sheet anchor of the colored man's political hopes and the ark of his safety."
The Equal Rights Party nominated Victoria Claflin Woodhull as its presidential candidate in 1872. Frederick Douglass was nominated as the vice-presidential candidate. Douglass never acknowledged the nomination and did not actively run. Woodhull couldn't even vote, since women didn't yet have that right in the US. Woodhull's platform was one of equal rights for women, and she was an outspoken proponent of free love.
Frederick Douglass was a former enslaved person who became a leading abolitionist, orator, and writer, advocating for the rights of African Americans and women. He published three autobiographies, with "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave" being one of the most influential works of the 19th century. Douglass was also a skilled orator, known for his powerful speeches that highlighted the injustices of slavery and the importance of equality. Additionally, he was the first African American to receive a vote for Vice President of the United States when he was nominated by the Equal Rights Party in 1888.
Picked individually by the candidates for president
Usually they are senators or governors who are often nominated. The Vice President is 99% nominated with no doubt, except if they don't want to.
The Vice President could become Acting President in the event of Presidential disability, and there is no codified term. A new Vice President would not be nominated. Should the Vice President succeed to the Presidency, then he would serve out the remainder of that President's term, and a new Vice President would ordinarily be nominated to fill the Vice President's unexpired term.
