if cheney dies who is the new vp?

Answer 1

Whoever George Bush chooses as his replacement.

Answer 2

If Cheney were to die, resign, or get removed from office by impeachment while President Bush is still President, then Bush would get to select a new VP subject to the confirmation of Congress.

Nancy Pelosi only becomes President if BOTH President Bush and Vice President Cheney die, resign, or get removed from office by impeachment at the SAME time. The only way Pelosi could become Vice President if Cheney dies would be if President Bush selected her to be his next Vice President which probably would not happen.

Answer 3

On October 10, 1973, Vice President Spiro Agnew resigned. According to The New York Times, "Nixon sought advice from senior Congressional leaders about a replacement.
The advice was unanimous. 'We gave Nixon no choice but Ford,' House Speaker Carl Albert recalled later"

Under this scenario, congress would unquestionably choose republican Chuck Hagle who would be easily confirmed by the house and senate.

Answer 4

Presidents appoint their VP with a approval by a majority vote in both houses of Congress if the VP dies or resigns. That is how Gerald Ford bacame President. Nixon appointed him VP when Agnew resigned and then when Nixon resigned Ford moved to become President from VP and appointed his own VP - Nelson Rockefeller.

Answer 5

The Constitution provides that the President appoint a new VP (subject to approval by Congress.

Answer 6

Before the 25th Amendment to the Constitution, the office just stayed vacant until the next election.

Now, the President proposes a replacement, and the congress has to approve.

Gerald Ford, and Nelson Rockefeller, were appointed VP this way.

The 25th Amendment was adopted after Kennedy was killed.

Answer 7

Bush will pull a Nixon and replace Cheney in the near future after Cheney is indicted for crimal activity.

Answer 8

Condoleezza Rice is usually considered the most likely candidate. Most other people the President might choose have their own problems (real or imagined) which would prevent them from being confirmed by the Senate.

Answer 9

Whoever gets nominated by the President and confirmed by Congress. Read the Constitution:

25th Amendment, Section 2: "Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress."

Line of succession (including Speaker of the House, etc.) only applies to the Acting President, not to lower offices.

Answer 10

Whoever the President appoints and Congress approves.

Answer 11

Bush appoints whoever he wants to the job. But Heaven forbid both Bush and Cheney die, then Pelosi becomes Surrenderer in Chief. STAY ALIVE GUYS!!!!!!!!!
