If the President dies in office and the Vice President takes over the office of the President, the Speaker of the House does not automatically become the Vice President. Under the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the new Vice President is nominated by the President. The new Vice President then takes office upon confirmation from both houses of Congress by a majority vote.
