But the best possible outcome would be Biden as President, and Nancy Pelosi as Veep. Sigh.
It's not immediately clear that Biden would become VP - the Congress would probably work its magic and "elect" him in an emergency session, but the VP's job is to replace the President. But if BHO is ruled ineligible, then he never WAS the president after all . . . with all the implications that brings along.
Can a VP replace a POTUS who actually
never was POTUS?
As for VP, Nancy Pelosi, as Speaker of the House, is 3rd in line of succession for POTUS, but I'm not aware of any formalized line of succession for VP. (Remember when Agnew left office, Ford was appointed - the office didn't go to the Speaker.) I remember reading that a law was passed formalizing the line of succession for POTUS, but I just don't know if the VP's job was included.
But let's not get our hopes up too much . . . I think the most likely scenario - assuming things aren't ultimately dismissed, regardless of the news stories - is that the genuine, long-form birth certificate will be produced, with the name of the hospitial and attending physician, and there will be something embarassing to BHO on it. (Maybe "Father" is listed as "Unknown?")
