That is an interesting point Cyber Liberty. It got me thinking, the Constitution does not specifically say that the VP must be NBC, but as the only real reason to have a VP is to have a replacement President. That really is all they are there for.

The only reason?

The VP is leader of the Senate and actually votes in case of a tie.

Constitutionally ineligible to the office of the Presidency should also apply to the line of succession --- when the succession process is activated, IMO.
