But what happens if Obama is impeached and removed from office? Most educated Americans know that in the event the President is removed from office that the Vice President becomes the next the President. When Richard Nixon resigned, Vice President Gerald Ford became the 38th President. If Obama is removed from office, Joe Biden would become our 45th President. However, I bet if you went into the inner city areas of many of the larger metropolises you would find a number of people who have no idea who would take over if Obama was impeached.
The U.S. Constitution provides for the removal of a sitting president through impeachment because our founders knew that all men have a propensity for evil. The first president to be impeached was Democrat Andrew Johnson who became president upon the death of Abraham Lincoln. Johnson had removed his Secretary of War from his cabinet, thereby violating the Tenure of Office Act, that was later declared unconstitutional.
