How the US President is Elected?
Start with the Constitution. The basic

process of selecting the President of the United States is spelled out in the U.S. Constitution, and it has been modified by the 12th, 22nd, and 23rd amendments. Many additional steps have been added over the years, by custom and by state law -- the process has changed quite a bit over time.
Who Can Run? The President and Vice-President are elected every four years. They must be at least 35 years of age, they must be native-born citizens of the United States, and they must have been residents of the U.S. for at least 14 years. (Also, a person cannot be elected to a third term as President.)

The eagle is clutching an olive branch (with 13 olives and 13 leaves) in one foot (symbolizing peace) and 13 arrows in the other (the 13 stands for the original 13 colonies and the arrows symbolize the acceptance of the need to go to war to protect the country).

Слайд 8

Abraham Lincoln was the sixteen president of the United States.Between

the ages of 22 and 27 he was a storekeeper, a postmaster, and a surveyor. In 1836, he became a lawyer in Springfield, Illinois. In 1834 Lincoln was elected to the Illinois state legislature, where he served four two – year terms and became known for his frankness, honesty and ability to tell droll stories. He then served one term in the U.S. House of Representatives – from 1847 to 1849. Lincoln opposed the extension of slavery in an unsuccessful aid for the U.S. Senate in 1858. After much hard work, he was elected President of the United States in 1861, just a few months before the Civil War began. He was the wartime leader of the country. Believing that slavery was wrong, he put forth the Emancipation Proclamation which freed all slaves, in 1863. Later that year, he gave the immortal Gettysburg Address during the dedications of the national cemetery at the site of a great, but costly, Union Victory. Lincoln was the first President to be assassinated. He was shot by actor John Whilkes Booth in Washington, D.C., on April 14, 1865, while watching a play at Ford’s Theater. Lincoln is considered one of America’s greatest and most loved leaders.
It is true that you may fool all the people some of the time, you can even fool some of the people all the time, but you can’t fool all the people all the time.
Abraham Lincoln
