although the vice president is assigned very little to do, he still has very important jobs. the vice president can become a very influential member of the president's administration. The vice president may not be taking the action forward, but he must be there if a time comes when he needs to. He needs to be well prepared and up to date on all current events. replacing a former president, no matter the circumstances, is a big role to fill. I am confident that bernie sanders can fulfill all roles that we need him to. he is a great man with very influential ways.
