Title: Just an idea
Post by: Holden McGroin on September 05, 2008, 04:20:39 PM
So on January 19th, Bush announces he will resign the Presidency effective 10 am EST tomorrow and then Dick Cheney announces he will resign the Vice Presidency effective 9:59 am EST tomorrow.

Nancy Pelosi is then sworn in for the interim 2 hours until the new president is sworn in at noon EST.

By Constitutonal law, she must resign her seat in the House of Representatives in order to ascend to the Presidency.

At 12:01 Nancy is then no longer President, no longer Speaker, no longer employed.

This got me pondering about another scenario.  What happens if between November and January the President Elect dies?

Then I'd think that the VP elect would replace him.

Amendment 25, section2, US Constitution

Congress then confirms the President elects' nomination for Vice President by majority vote

And yanno what.
This government is so effed up.
It wouldnt surprise me one bit if it happened.
GREAT thought and Idea though.

Another scenario.
Obama wins the election and Bush refuses to leave.
Eventually having to be restrained and ragged from the building he will be heard screaming.
"No No. Im the decider! Im the decider"
 LMAO
