25th Amendment facts

While investigating facts about 25th Amendment, I found out little known, but curios details like:

The 25th Amendment of the US Constitution allows the Vice-President, supported by a simple majority of the 15 other members of the US Cabinet, to remove the US President from office and assume the Presidency himself immediately.

The 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, directing that the President can hand power over to the Vice President if the President feels "unable to discharge the powers and duties of ... office,” has been invoked three times — all for colon-related reasons.

In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 13 of the best facts about 25th Amendment I managed to collect.

1. The 25th Amendment allows the Vice President and Cabinet to unilaterally declare the President incapacitated and remove him from office. This came close to happening in 1987.

2. Every invocation of the 25th Amendment Section 3(President temporarily relieving his powers to the Vice President) so far was due to a colonoscopy

3. Section 4 of the 25th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution allows for the Vice President and Cabinet to declare the President "unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office"

4. The 25th Amendment lays out the rules for presidential succession. Prior to it being passed, four Presidents (John Tyler, Millard Fillmore, Andrew Johnson, and Chester A. Arthur) simply never got vice presidents.

5. The 25th Amendment of the US Constitution requires that there be a Vice President at all times. Before this, 18 US Presidents served a part of their term (in the case of John Tyler and Millard Fillmore, their whole term) without a Vice President.

6. All instances of 25th Amendment for Acting Presidents have been related to the colon.

7. Section 4 of the 25th Amendment allows for the Vice President and Cabinet to declare the President unfit to carry out his duties, but it has never been used.

8. William Henry Harrison had the shortest term of any US President, dying after 32 days in office from pneumonia. As the first president to die in office, his death caused the creation of the 25th Amendment, which established the succession for the Presidency.

9. The 25th amendment allows the president to be removed from office by his appointed cabinet members.
