Across the country citizens are engaging in vigorous debates about who should be our next president. Yet, despite all of the time spent discussing the candidates’ positions on the issues, according to an Associated Press-Ipsos poll, the majority of us consider character first when choosing a president.

The VIA Institute’s Presidential Caucus brings this critical issue of character into focus. It allows you to offer your view on what character strengths you would like to see in the next president as well as identify the character strengths you see most in the presidential and vice-presidential candidates.
