S E C T I O N 2 Presidential Succession and the Vice Presidency

What if something happens to the president? How many times has he died? How many times has he been assassinated?

Presidential succession is the plan by which a presidential vacancy is filled. The 25th Amendment, ratified in 1967, made it clear that the Vice President will become President if the President is removed from office. The Presidential Succession Act of 1947 set the order of succession following the Vice President.

Presidential Disability Sections 3 and 4 of the 25th Amendment provide procedures to follow when the President is disabled.

The Vice President is to become acting President if (1) the President informs Congress, in writing, “that he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office,” or (2) the Vice President and a majority of the members of the Cabinet inform Congress, in writing, that the President is thus incapacitated.

The Constitution only gives the Vice President two duties besides becoming President if the President is removed from office: 1) to preside over the Senate, and 2) to help decide the question of presidential disability.

How can a president become “un-disabled?” The president can retake control by telling Congress s/he’s okay However, the cabinet and the vice-president can refuse to give back control to the elected president by having each house vote 2/3 to keep the v.p. in power

The Vice Presidency If the office of Vice President becomes vacant, the President nominates a new Vice President subject to the approval of Congress. Today, the Vice President often performs diplomatic and political chores for the President.

1. Who is in line for presidential succession following the Vice President? (a) the First Lady (b) the Speaker of the House (c) the president of the Senate (d) the Secretary of State 2. Which constitutional amendment provides for presidential succession? (a) the 25th Amendment (b) the 26th Amendment (c) the 22nd Amendment (d) the 21st Amendment
