How important is a VP during an election or there after?

Question

can anyone tell me who is d**k CHENY? or who was nixon's VP?or reagan's or Jimmy Carter? john kerry?micheal dukackus?get my pont yet?

Answer 1

d**k Cheney is Bush's puppet master, Nixon's VP was Spiro Agnew, Reagan's was George HW Bush again the real power behind the office.  Jimmy Carter had Walter Mondale who unsuccessfully ran for President against Reagan in 04 resulting in the most lopsided election in history.  George HW Bush's Veep was Dan Quayle by the way and Clinton's was Al Gore.  Kerry who wasn't a President ran with John Edwards, remember him and Dukakis and Lloyd Bentsen also had a stunning defeat against Bush/Quayle.

Just because you know nothing about American political history doesn't mean the rest of don't.

Biden will be the puppet master behind the empty suit of Obama(peace be unto him) do you know anything about Biden's politics because that is who you will be voting for not the figurehead Obama(peace be unto him).

Answer 2

Oh please, the VP has more powers now than the history of our entire country.

And besides that considering that Obama's life is constantly threatened and McCain might drop dead, I'd say VP is very important.

Answer 3

The VP choice is not important to most voters.

Answer 4

Cheney is our "acting" President.  Nixon went through Spiro Agnew and then Gerald Ford who became President when Nixon resigned.  Reagan's VP was George H.W.Bush who succeeded him as President.  Jimmy Carter had Walter Mondale who ran for President and lost to Ronald Reagan.  John Kerry had John Edwards as his running mate.  Dukaikas had former Senator of Texas Lloyd Bentsen.  Get my point?  

Answer 5

I can name all the VPs because it's not hard considering that they usually become President right afterward...

It's very important in McCain's case because he's probably not going to last more than 4 years (physically speaking).
