If the VP role is to rubber stamp election certification, as some contend, why is that role even needed?

The 12th Amendment requires it.

The 12th Amendment requires it.

This is where you falsely conflate one thing to be the equal of another.

The 12th amendment does not require a "rubber stamp." It requires the President of the Senate to preside, and that means to rational people that he has discretionary powers.

When it comes to being stupid I’LL defer to you.

Back at you. I didn't know you were a Constitutional expert. Is "requires it" a legal term.

Nothing says Constitutional legality like a simple iron fisted rubber stamp of approval (or disapproval for that matter) without debate or discussion.< /sarcasm >

You'll eat your words someday.
