presidential candidate

A presidential candidate is an individual who seeks to become the President of a country, typically through an election. They often belong to a political party and campaign to share their ideas and policies with voters to gain their support. Candidates usually participate in debates, rallies, and other events to communicate their vision for the nation's future. The selection process often includes primaries or caucuses, where party members choose their preferred candidate, followed by a general election where the winner becomes the President if they receive a majority of the votes.
