The Presidential Line of Succession Act says that it's the Speaker of the House of Representatives, who is currently John Boehner (R). After him is the President Pro Tempore of the Senate, Daniel Inouye (D). After those guys it starts going through the members of the White House Cabinet, starting with the Secretary of State (Hillary Clinton)
