Original Note:
In the US, only the President and Vice President are elected—not the (appointed or nominated) members of their administration. This contrasts with parliamentary systems, where Cabinet members may also be elected MPs. It is thus inaccurate to say "you're electing a team". https://www.usa.gov/election https://www.loc.gov/classroom-materials/elections/presidential-election-process/ https://bensguide.gpo.gov/election-of-the-president-vice-president-electoral-college
