Newswise — This professor has been called upon from across the country and the globe to discuss the vice presidency, why the role is important and who may be in line for this election year, most recently with Katie Couric and Australia's ABC News. Having spoken to policy makers and Washington insiders about the decisions to come, Professor Joel Goldstein is widely known as the nation’s foremost expert on the vice presidency. He literally wrote the book.

He is available for interviews in the coming days and weeks as we watch the RNC and DNC play out on the grand stage.
