Synopsis How to Become President of the United States by : Eugene Telser
It was exactly 4:18 A.M. on a Monday in mid-December. The phone startled me out of an intense sleep. I had exhausted myself over the weekend circulating through a medley of preholiday celebrations, tailored to meet the needs of single, lonely adults. When I had stumbled into my apartment about two hours earlier it had been much too difficult to shed all of my garments. I lay face buried in the pillows, feet dangling over the side of the bed, in a desperate attempt to gather in enough sleep so that I could face what I knew would be a bleak, grey and cold Monday morning. The sound of the bell near my left ear startled me into a full flip from my stomach to my back, just like a crack of thunder had done to me so often on those hot summer nights of my childhood. I wasn't certain of what had awakened me 'till the next burst of vibration from the phone. "What the hell," I thought, "who could be calling now?" Glancing at the lighted dial on the clock-radio I saw the minute flip from 4:17 to 4:18. "Jeez. What kinda nut calls at this hour?" My bedroom was freezing. The tip of my nose, despite having been buried in the pillow, felt like an ice cube.

Synopsis Grace for President by : Kelly DiPucchio
A fresh, fun, and "thought-provoking" New York Times bestseller about the American electoral college and why every vote counts from bestselling and award-winning duo Kelly DiPucchio and LeUyen Pham. "Where are the girls?" When Grace's teacher reveals that the United States has never had a female president, Grace decides she wants to be the nation's first and immediately jumpstarts her political career by running in her school's mock election! The race is tougher than she expected: her popular opponent declares that he's the "best man for the job" and seems to have captured the votes of all of the class's boys. But Grace is more determined than ever. Even if she can't be the best man for the job, she can certainly try to be the best person! This timely story not only gives readers a fun introduction to the American electoral system but also teaches the value of hard work, courage, independent thought -- and offers an inspiring example of how to choose our leaders.

Synopsis Who Will Be the Next President? by : Alexander S. Belenky
This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This book addresses the peculiarities of the current presidential election system not yet addressed in other publications. It argues that any rules for electing a President that may have a chance to replace the current ones should provide an equal representation of states as equal members of the Union, and of the nation as a whole. This book analyzes the National Popular Vote plan and shows that this plan may violate the Supreme Court decisions on the equality of votes cast in statewide popular elections held to choose state electors. That is, the National Popular Vote plan may violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The book proposes a new election system in which the will of the states and the will of the nation as a whole are determined by direct popular elections for President and Vice President in the 50 states and in D.C. This system a) would elect President a candidate who is the choice of both the nation as a whole and of the states as equal members of the Union, b) would let the current system elect a President only if the nation as a whole and the states as equal members of the Union fail to agree on a common candidate, and c) would encourage the candidates to campaign nationwide. The second edition has been updated to include a proposal on how to make established non-major party presidential candidates and independent candidates welcome participants in national televised presidential debates with the major-party candidates.

Synopsis Preparing to be President by : Richard E. Neustadt
In 1960, then-Senator John F. Kennedy asked author Richard Neustadt to write a series of memos to plan for the transition into office. Neustadt later also prepared transition memos for Reagan, Dukakis, and Clinton. This work presents these previously unpublished memos, along with new essays by Neustadt and volume editor Jones. The memos provide new information on the workings of several presidential campaigns and administrations, addressing questions on organizing the transition team, staffing, and the roles of the vice president and first lady. Neustadt reveals how he came to advise the presidents-elect and candidates and the thinking behind recommendations he made. Neustadt is affiliated with Harvard University. Jones is affiliated with the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the Brookings Institute. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR

Synopsis Becoming President by : Silas M. Riley
The Constitution sets out three eligibility requirements to be President: one must be 35 years of age, a resident "within the United States" for 14 years, and a "natural born Citizen". There is no Supreme Court case which has ruled specifically on the presidential eligibility requirements, and this clause has been the subject of several legal and historical treatises over the years, as well as more recent litigation. This book discusses the qualifications required to become a President of the United States, as well as the required nominations and funding.
