Lord forbid. But what if someone did assassinate Obama? Biden would become the new president, and Polesi, the Speaker of the House, if I am not mistake would become the new VP.

Hummmm I guess the truth hurts. ROFLOL, by the way, I am an Independent. I was just stating a hard fact if Obama were to be assassinated. How does that make me an idiot?

Yes, Biden would become president and Pelosi would be VP. I believe then the President Pro Tempore of the Senate would be speaker and Secretary of State would be President Pro Tempore. I think.

What I'm not sure of is why you are asking?

Just curious about what people think about that line up, and from the reaction it's obvious that some aren't to happy with it.

Doesn't matter what political party one belongs to, the fact of the matter is that people wanted change, and now we have it.

I think the OP has a valid question, even though it is somewhat blunt. Most people don't know the secession of leaders after an assassination of a President. God forbid Obama be dethroned for some reason, then we would have to worry about Biden killing over dead and Pelosi taking the reigns as POTUS.

We would have more to worry about than "the lineup" if that happened.

Look,

I think quite highly of Independents.

The fact is that Pelosi and her puppets already rule America. The same way she'll run America in the future. Barack is her next conquer.

Pelosi will not be happy until she sucks the whole country up into her fantasy of homosexual Catholicism, flying personal 747s in the face of phony global warming, wrenching Harry Ried's balls in her own hand ( it puts such a smile on her 70 year old face ), telling Congress that she will not stand for domestic drilling even though it would be the best way to make America free from dependency on the Middle East.

You're right !! Pelosi running this country to any greater extent would really be bad. Joe Biden running this country is equally bad. Barack running this country ...... bad.

It's just a swing. 8 years from now Republicans will be in office again. Because Barack and Hillary will hurt the world you live in.

Not a problem for me, I live in a part of the country where we're not affected by political crap .. but it's the kids ( today's young folks ) who've been hoodwinked.

An I-Pod in every pot.

This is insane! Is this for real? Or is this a joke? Because there's no way that you can be serious. This is INSANE!
