The Vice President of the United States was the second-highest official in the Executive Branch of the United States government. The Vice President was first in the presidential line of succession, and became President of the United States if the current president died, resigned, or was in some other way unable to serve as President.

Role and responsibility[]

The VP was a chief advisor to the president. In circumstances of assassination or death, the vice president becomes President in his own right. In cases of incapacity, the Vice-President becomes 'Acting President', in this case the VP has the presidents powers but the President remains 'President'.

The level of a vice president's involvement in policy- and decision-making processes was up to each individual president.
