The 12th Amendment to the Constitution cancelled the original procedure by which federal electors voted for two candidates, (the loser becoming veep)—and thereafter people seemedtoloseall further interest. Thusit is today that the common citizen no longer has anything but indirect influence over the selection of the second highest officer in the land. The voter votes for a presidential ticket. And only rarely does the voter have anypart in the formulation ofthe ticket. As election historian Theodore White putsit: “Onlya presi- forth. In 1966, it was a Delaware Indian. Chief Burning Wood.
