Joel Goldstein talked about the role and the history of the vice presidency. Topics included the historical significances of the vice president, Mitt Romney’s selection of Paul Ryan as his running mate, the lack of national security credentials between Mitt Romney or Paul Ryan, and why presidential nominees seldom choose a member from the House of Representatives as a vice presidential candidate. Viewer questions were taken via telephone and electronic devices.
