Not really; only about 25% are reversed

Pretty rare. Other answers have spelled out the required majority. Presidents usually don't veto bills if an override is certain. Many governors have the ability to veto line items in a bill, something the president doesn't have and most would like to have.

No. Most times the veto stands. The House and Senate are unable to pass the proposed legislation, the objections of the President notwithstanding.

It is a very rare occurrence and requires a 2/3 majority to override a veto.

Obama has made massive strides in the direction of convalescing usa's honor after the devastation of the Bush years. the yank electorate could desire to kick the lobbyists out of Washington, so the legislators can characterize each and every of the yank human beings plenty greater acceptable. this could a great deal help usa's honor.

no it's almost always impossible because 2/3 of the senators must vote to overturn and the congress is too divided politically to get that much support against a president of either rep or dem party.

2/3 of each house of Congress (House and the Senate) -- it's fairly rare.
