Since all Vice Presidents to date have met these requirements, there has never been a challenge to this.

Was the Emancipation Proclamation a bigger decision than Trumans atomic bomb?
United States presidents have taken actions that have had a significant effect on United States foreign or domestic policies. In fact, President Lincoln and President Truman are listed as the Presidents who took one of the most difficult presidential decisions in our nation's history. It is this authority of thought that apparently helps explain some of the most difficult presidential decisions in our nation's history - Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, Truman's go-ahead with the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. A deeper reading into the lives of American presidents show that great leaders often have to amend their previous interpretations of what is a "correct" moral stand. Those decisions dictated a course of history. They were also a turning point. Most historians agree that those decisions were big in the days, and could not agree which one was bigger.
Was Carter or is Obama the worst President in history?
That is an unfair question, since it assumes both of these men did a bad job, and that is not necessarily true. Carter had his detractors, but now that several decades have passed, history is showing that some of his decisions were actually quite reasonable. As for Obama, clearly you do not like him, but that does not make him the worst president. In fact, it should be noted that President Bush inspired similar comments from those who disliked him-- it is also true that many other presidents have been called the worst president in history. Many historians would say that one candidate for "worst president" was Richard Nixon, who was nearly impeached for corruption and had to resign from the presidency.
