Which amendment establishes what to do if the president is incapacitated and cant perform his duties?

Amendment #25. Specifically, Section 3, which states, "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."


Which amendment spells out who becomes president-elect in the event of the death of a president-elect?

There are three sections in the Constitution that specify the line of succession. First is Article II, Section 1, where it says that the Vice President is next in line. The second is in the 20th Amendment, Section 3, which says that if the President-elect dies before taking office, then the VP-elect gets inaugurated. The third is in the 25th Amendment, which clarified Article II, explicitly stating that if the President can no longer serve, that the VP becomes President.


When did the amendment 25 to the declaration get signed?

There have been NO amendments to the Declaration of Independence. Perhaps you are thinking of the 25th amendment to the Constitution? Constitutional amendments are not "signed"; they are passed by a 2/3 vote of the Congress and then ratified by 3/4 of the States. It is an interesting quirk in the law that the President of the United States has ABSOLUTELY NO authority to do anything about a Constitutional amendment; he can't sign it or veto it, and it isn't up to him at all. The 25th Amendment, regarding the Presidential succession, was ratified in 1967.
