I believe the senate majority leader.
Next in line is the Speaker of the House of Representatives. However, in actual practice if some scandal made both president and Veep want to resign, the Veep would resign first and a new veep would be appointed. Then the president would quit and the new Veep would become president. The only likely way the House Speaker would become president would be for the President and vice-president to both die suddenly at the same time or nearly the same time.
The Vice President of the United States. If that position is vacant, the next in line is the Speaker of the House of Represenatives.
The president would still be the president and he would appoint a new VP. We have had a "replacement" VP in the past. Vice President Agnew was asked to resign and Gerald Ford became VP.
There has never been a Speaker of the House to be elevated to Vice President and then to President. However, if the President and Vice President was to die or resign, the Speaker of the House would be next in line.
The Speaker of the House of Representatives is the next in line of succession.
In 1825 the candidate with the greatest number of electoral votes would become president and the candidate with the next - highest number would become vice president.
Say if the president DID die... the person that would become president next would be the vice-president. That's why they have those... to become the president if the original president would die.... If the vice president and the main president both died... I don't know what would happen... I think they'd reallect!
The vice president. Next in Line would be the Speaker of the House, and right now that would be Nancy Pelosi . Vice-President Biden merely mis-spoke today. This is why , outside of very secure places, like the White House , you seldom see the President and Vice-President together.
The Speaker of the House of Representatives is the next in line of succession.
Thomas Jefferson was the Vice President in 1800. He would become President the next year on March 4.
