In fact you only have to be a natural citizen and be 35 years. The 14 year residence was applicable in the beginning. If they don't meet this minimal requirement, they are skipped.

for sure, a serious question to consider.... i'm slightly an undercover conspiracy buff (like alot of voters are afraid to admit) and performance requested a similar question yet a diverse way. i'm hoping Mccain gained't die. someone reported he has maximum cancers and is able to die. i'm so scared some crazed Palin-obsessed republican feminist ought to flow on a rampage and kill Mccain purely to confirm Palin in place of work.

if the Speaker is ineligible, then it goes to the next Constitutional Officer in the line
