| | Vice President - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Vice Presidents are often elected jointly with the president as his or her running mate, elected separately, or appointed independently after the president's election. |  | | In politics, a vice president is a politician whose primary function is to replace the president on the event of his or her death or resignation. |  | | Governments with vice presidents generally have only one person holding this role and generally if the president is not present, dies, resigns, or is otherwise unable to fulfill his job, the vice president will serve as a president. |

 | | Gerald Ford became the first Vice President to be nominated by the President and confirmed by the Congress pursuant to the Twenty-fifth Amendment. |  | | Although the office of vice president did not exist under the Continental Congresses or the Articles of Confederation, the concept of a concurrently elected successor to the executive was not without precedent for the framers of the Constitution in 1787. |  | | Vice presidents represented their presidents' administrations on Capitol Hill, served on the National Security Council, chaired special commissions, acted as high level representatives of the government to foreign heads of state, and assumed countless other chores — great and trivial — at the president's direction. |
