Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Presidential Cabinet, a group of individuals who advised the president.

The Presidential Cabinet is made up of 15 executive departments, including the vice president.

Each was ahead, known as a Secretary like the Secretary of Transportation or the Secretary of Education.

With the exception of the Justice Department, which is known as the attorney general, Cabinet members are chosen by the president and confirmed by the U.S. Senate.

The Cabinet members departments are important to the running of the country, and each secretary will advise the president based on their area of expertise.

The presidential Cabinet dates back to the first President George Washington, who had a group of four trusted advisors, including Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton.

These advisers are usually nominated around December and January and the full Cabinet won't be confirmed until a few months into the new administration.

In recent presidencies, at least one chosen Cabinet member will be withdrawn before being confirmed.

Carol, though president-elect Joe Biden has started to fill out portions of his cabinet, it will be interesting to see the final lineup of chosen advisors.
