What happens in the event of a disability to the president?
Amendment 25 of the US Constitution provides procedures for temporary removal of president both voluntarily and involuntarily as well as the process for the president to regain his powers in the two cases.Here are the clauses relevant to this question:3. Whenever the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, and until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary, such powers and duties shall be discharged by the Vice President as Acting President.4. Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.
Does the president ever appoints the vice to take charge if he is still in the same room?
I am not sure what you want to know. The President can not and does not informally transfer his powers to the vice-president or anybody else. If the President is disabled and unable to perform his duties, he must transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. At that point, the vice-president takes over the President's duties. (I suppose the vice-president could be visiting the president in , say a hospital room, when the president tells him that he has sent such letters.)
What article of the constitution gives the president his power?
Article II gives information about the President. Section 2 is especially concerned with his powers and duties.
