Around the time they stopped giving the Veep slot to the 2nd place finisher in the general election.

When did that happen. I never really studied American history, but I seem to recall Lincoln appointed VPs of his choice, and that was about 150 years ago. JFK didn't have Nixon as a VP... though that would have been fun!
