The framers CLEARLY establishment that the runner up for President would become Vice President when they ratified the Constitution in 1789.

I didn't say the Framers were infallible. I said they were smarter than YOU.

I don't think you will find anyone on this forum who would say otherwise.

So did the passage of the twelfth amendment in 1804 destroy our Republic? Should we repeal it and get to what the framers had in mind in 1788? They must have been smarter than the people who came up with a different method of picking the Vice President years later, right?
