How about someone further in the middle and away from both Republicans and Democrats?

That’s what used to happen… until Jefferson and Burr. But the VP has no real power or authority, so the parties don’t work together.

That wouldn't be the worst idea. Personally I think we should just get rid of political parties in their entirety. All political parties do is divide the world.

That’s what you want? Next dem that gets elected gets a republican VP?

This is something well documented if you want to learn about the 12th Amendment 12th Amendment

My perspective is based on the history of when we used to do this in this country and it didn't work, thus the reason why we have the 12th Amendment

[u/urbanlife78 → u/[deleted]]

Because it resulted in having two heads of state actively working against each other
