Presidental Line of Succession

[King Matjlav VI]

I think we should have a solid Presidential line of succession, rather than the current system. I suppose this would be categorized as a Constitutional Amendment. Here's what I'd like the Amendment to read:

---

AMENDMENT I

In case of the removal of the president from office, or of his death, resignation, or inability to discharge the powers and duties of the said office, the same shall devolve on the first eligible person in a presidential line of succession established by the senate.

---

I have a line of succession planned already, but first we'll have to approve the amendment itself. I vote in favor of the Amendment.

[Admiral Janeway]

I actually like the idea. We do need one even passed the VP. The US has one, with it being President, VP, then Speaker of the House, and then down the line of his cabinet members.

[Lord Ulsdan Crai]

I am also in favor

[King Matjlav VI]

One more approval and we have ourselves an amendment!

[Admiral Janeway]

great, Where is nicolas again?

[King Matjlav VI]

Since Lordnicolas is no longer a Senator, the senate is reduced to 6, meaning that only 4 votes are needed to confirm the amendment. So, wouldn't this now be passed? I think it's up to you, Mr. President.

[Fenure]

I'm in favor, but what is the order?

The order will be passed in an Act.

Anyway, the Presidential Line of Succession has been officially passed as our first Constitutional Amendment! I'll start up the Act to establish the order in another thread.

Wonderful, great jov everyone!
