Over the past thirty‐five years, most publications have lowered the "p" in "President" to "president" of the United States. After discussing political symbolism and the importance of the "President" as a national symbol, we offer a typology for analyzing the grammatical changes that have occurred in leading political science monographs, introductory college textbooks, professional journals, popular periodicals, newspapers, and style manuals over the past three decades. Prior to the 1970s, publications generally employed the uppercase "President," when this nearly universal standard changed dramatically. We find that it was neither journalists, grammarians, publishers, nor politicians but rather prominent presidential scholars (namely Thomas E. Cronin and George E. Reedy) who led the nation's intellectual charge to make the lowercase "president" the rule rather than the exception.

When in a position of leadership, there's almost nothing more valuable than a person who always supports and challenges you. The vice president of an organization, much like the vice president of the United States, aids the president in any way they can, including stepping up to the top role if the president can no longer hold it. Readers learn about how one becomes US vice president and the duties of this sometimes-overlooked position. In addition, specially designated sidebars and content relate this federal process to student elections and organizations to aid readers in pursuing their leadership ambitions
