Curses / Re: Assassinating the Vice President
« on: June 15, 2013, 06:49:19 am »Also potentially relevant, but maybe ignorable:
"Albert openly questioned whether it was appropriate for him, a Democrat, to assume the powers and duties of the presidency when there was a public mandate for the presidency to be held by a Republican. Albert announced that should he need to assume the presidential powers and duties, he would do so only as a caretaker."
That is mind-blowing... most Governors won't even appoint a caretaker congressman or senator from the opposing party anymore. Does anyone seriously think the modern House of Representatives wouldn't try their hardest to appoint a Republican VP if something happened to the current Administration? Wish we had a government full of Rep. Alberts.
