Superfluous Twenty-Fifth Amendmend Replaced Constitution's Article II Clause VI

1 pointsby SherlockeHolmesover 7 years ago
Claim is that Clause VI is not clear enough on the succession of Presidency in cases of injury, resignation, or other forms of incapacitation of a sitting President - when in reality Clause VI instructs on the subject and is specific enough to differentiate among these cases.<p>Clause VI is clear in mentioning that in all of these cases, the incapacitation&#x2F;suspension&#x2F;resignation of the President&#x27;s Office also devolves to Office of the Vice President, thus rendering currently adopted amendment unconstitutional.<p>It also prudently allows the Congress to make the selection of an &quot;acting&quot; President from a pool of people loosely referred to as &quot;Officer&quot;, until return of sitting President to health or an election.
