Vice President of the United States (President of the Senate) (Reprinted from: Mark O
Hatfield, with the Senate Historical Office, Vice Presidents of the United States, 1789-1993, Washington: U.S
xiii-xxiii.) Holding the least understood, most ridiculed, and most often ignored constitutional office in the federal government, American vice presidents have included some remarkable individuals
Fourteen of the forty-four former vice presidents became president of the United States — more than half of them after a president had died
One defeated the sitting president with whom he served
One served as a corporal in the Coast Guard while vice president
And one piano-playing vice president suffered political repercussions from a photograph showing him playing that instrument while famous movie actress Lauren Bacall posed seductively on top of it
As is apparent from such examples, the men who served as vice president of the United States varied greatly in their talents and aptitude for the post
In setting up a system for electing presidents, they devised an electoral college and provided that each of its members was to vote for two persons, 'of whom one at least shall not be an Inhabitant of the same State with themselves.' In those days when loyalty to one's state was stronger than to the new nation, the framers recognized that individual electors might be inclined to choose a leader from their own immediate political circle, creating the danger of a crippling deadlock, as no one candidate would win a plurality of all votes cast

President Bush.
Former Vice President Al Gore Remarks to MoveOn.org New York University August 7, 2003 -AS PREPARED- Ladies and Gentlemen: Thank you for your investment of time and energy in gathering here today
Some of you may remember that my last formal public address on these topics was delivered in San Francisco, a little less than a year ago, when I argued that the President's case for urgent, unilateral, pre-emptive war in Iraq was less than convincing and needed to be challenged more effectively by the Congress
At first, I thought maybe the President's advisers were a big part of the problem
Last fall, in a speech on economic policy at the Brookings Institution, I called on the President to get rid of his whole economic team and pick a new group
And a few weeks later, damned if he didn't do just that - and at least one of the new advisers had written eloquently about the very problems in the Bush economic policy that I was calling upon the President to fix
So obviously I was wrong: changing all the president's advisers didn't work as a way of changing the policy
I remembered all that last month when everybody was looking for who ought to be held responsible for the false statements in the President's State of the Union Address

Vice President, thanks for joining us on Late Edition
VICE PRESIDENT AL GORE : Glad to do it
Less than a year from now, we probably will know who the Democratic nominee is, who the Republican nominee is for the president
Why do you want to be president? GORE : Well, Wolf, I haven't formally announced my candidacy yet, but when I do, I will lay out a vision of what I want to see in this country in the 21st century
BLITZER : Are you looking at some precedents, some previous examples? When Vice President Bush, for example, made his announcement? GORE : No, I won't base it on previous campaigns, I'll just look at see what seems like the right time
The question to you is, do you want to emerge from the president's shadow? GORE : Well, I don't feel like I'm in his shadow
I think the job of vice president is very different and very distinct from the job of president
And for the last 6 years-plus, I've concentrated on doing the best job I can as vice president to help he be the best president he can be
