“Why not, it is pretty simple. He is removed from office, Biden takes his place, appoints a VP and off we go.”

.
If that were possible, we would not be posting on this thread right now.

It also invalidates Biden, since he is nothing but a choice by an inelligible candidate. If O wasn’t elected, then Biden is not VP!

Since Biden was not listed separately on the ballot, but was listed as an adjunct to Obama, is he legally Vice President?

The law, as I understand it, is that If a candidate cannot be qualified the next qualified candidate is elected....Biden was never a candidate for president.....

Do the rules of succession >VP>Speaker>SOS>etc. apply if the sitting president is disqualified (as opposed to being removed or dying) from holding the presidency in the first place?........

Its a mess no matter what!
