Mike Pence Served As Vice President For Four Years
Now he is running for President of the USA
Mike Pence had experience in Government.
Even though Donald Trump had no government and political experience in elective office when he ran for President of the United States, he had a Vice Presidential candidate with him who had considerable experience. Now Mike Pence is running for President.
People may have thought Pence was going to be the one to advise Trump because of his experience. He stayed in the position for the full term.
Michael Richard Pence was born on June 7, 1959, in Columbus, Indiana. Pence graduated from Hanover College and then the Indiana University School of Law before entering private practice.
He is a Republican who lost two House bids in 1988 and 1990, but he was elected in 2000 to represent Indiana’s 2nd district in the U.S. House of Representatives. He was a member of the House from 2001 to 2013 when he became the 50th Governor of Indiana.
Pence seemed to be a wise choice for Trump because of his experience in government along with his strong Christian and conservative values which might have made up for some of the shortcomings of the former President.
Vice President Pence declined to do Trump’s bidding when Trump wanted him to stop the certification of Joe Biden as President. Now Pence is running for President against his former boss.
It would seem that more Republicans who were Trump fans but no longer are would be for Pence in the wide field of Republicans who are running in the primary. After all, he was there through all the Trump years. He might be considered as one who held Trump’s administration together although Vice Presidents at times do not get a lot of credit.
