“Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.”
If Kamala gets into a fatal small plane accident, then Biden can basically choose anybody he likes.
Of course, any new vice president will be chosen for him.
Others have pointed out that Biden’s choice would need congressional approval.
So basically Kamala needs to go down in flames before the 2022 election which will hand congress over to Republicans.
Understood, but I posted this in the context of her being appointed as the new Attorney General, which is all over GAW and the web. Sorry I didn't make that clear.
Sniff test.
Kek
The vp is selected by the president then approved by congress
Selection by POTUS and approval by Senate.
I believe approval is by both house and senate.
You’re correct fren. 25th amendment, section 2.
“Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.”
Thanks, that's fast!

Attorney general huh.
Yeah that sounds like a job she knows how to fuck up big time.
Yup, that's the scuttlebutt.
And is it presumed Biden is going to nominate someone? Who? And Kamala just goes quietly?
