13. For a number of years, there have been suggestions that the current system of electing a president should be done away with. In two or three well-written paragraphs, discuss the following: the reason for the system currently used, its positive and negative points. In your opinion, would direct election be a better system? Provide supporting detail and explanation for your opinion.

In America, we do not directly elect the individual who becomes President of the United States. Describe the indirect process by which our president is elected. Included in your discussion should be the role of the primaries/caucuses. political conventions, the voter, the Electoral College, and the House of Representatives.
