About

Have you ever dreamed of running for President of the United States? In this series, you will take on the role of a US Senator running for President. You will participate in debates, talk to voters, and win as many votes as possible. Of those who register for the series, only one will become commander-in-chief. Will it be you? The simulation will be based on actual US election procedures, including state-based presidential primaries, party nominations, and an electoral college system. Don't worry if you're not sure what that means; we'll get everyone up to speed! This course serves as a great supplement to AP US History or AP US Government and Politics.
