汤玛斯杰佛逊 (Thomas Jefferson) 于1801217日赢得选举与总统职位

在他胜选三年后,宪法第十二号修正案正式通过。这个修正案赋予公民「在不同选票上圈选总统与副总统人选」的权力。

直到现在,如果你想要竞选美国总统,你再也不必担心会变成副总统了。


Three years after Jefferson was elected, the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution was adopted. This amendment provides that citizens "name in their ballots the person voted for as president, and in (different) ballots the person voted for as vice president."

Today, if you run for president of the United States, you won't have to worry about being elected vice president instead.
