	Acting President of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Acting President of the United States is a temporary office in the government of the United States, established under the auspices of the Constitution of the United States, particularly its 25th Amendment (ratified in 1967).
		Tyler made it clear that he was the President rather than the Vice President acting as such, and that precedent prevailed until ratification of the 25th amendment in 1967.
		Rather than to transfer Presidential authority to Vice President Thomas Riley Marshall, Wilson's condition was hidden (to the extent that he was physically isolated) from the Vice President, the Cabinet, Congress and the public for most of the remainder of his second term.

	Guardian \| Meet the acting president
		As in The West Wing, the president remains slightly remote from the narrative, though Bridges manages superbly to convey a richly complicated Clintonesque character who is sexy, charming and folksy yet ruthless and pragmatic.
		Imaginary presidents, on the other hand, are now so thick on the ground that they are the subject of academic books and conferences, including one that Peter Rollins is helping to organise just after the real election.
		There are those that depict the president as a man of action, such as Independence Day, in which the president destroys an alien invasion, and Air Force One, where Harrison Ford performs spectacular heroics to recapture his plane from a group of terrorist hijackers led by Gary Oldman (again).

	Acting Vice President, Part I (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The Vice Presidency was vacant ten (or eleven, depending on your definition) times between 1789 and 1886, due to the death of the Vice President or the elevation of the elected Vice President to the Presidency upon the death of the President.
		The Constitution also creates the position of President Pro Tempore of the Senate, to be elected by the senators, to preside over the Senate in the absence of the Vice President of the United States.
		So, according to the Presidential Succession Act of 1792, when there was no Vice President, either because the Vice President had died or resigned or moved up to the Presidency, the President Pro Tem was next in line to be President.

	Acting President - dKosopedia
		According to the 25th Amendment to the Constitution, the Vice President becomes the Acting President when the President is "unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office".
		In the former case, the transfer is usually only temporary, until such time as the President resumes power; this is typically done, for instance, when the President will be undergoing surgery.
		The concept of Acting President in the case of Presidential incapacitation is distinct from Presidential succession, in which case the Vice President actually becomes President following the President's death, resignation, or removal from office.

	Acting JTTA president calls elections - JAMAICAOBSERVER.COM
		The JTTA will have a new president, as the acting president Peter Moo Young, who took over the running of the association fully after elected president Stephen Hylton resigned, has made it clear he will not be seeking the post.
		However, in a brief statement to fellow JTTA councillors a few days earlier, the acting president said: "June 8 is our anniversary date, and beyond that it would be too late, for people to wait, for me to fly the gate".
		The tenet never materialised and the elected members of the team of Hylton as president, Moo Young, second vice-president, Dr Robert Green, third vice-president, and Roxanne Morris, general secretary, gradually disintegrated with resignations, leaving Moo Young to man the operations of the JTTA with the assistance of some of the association's councillors.

	Declaration of Acting President Oda - LUS
		I do not deny that under the positive law of the United Nations Charter a resolution of the Security Council may have binding force, irrespective of the question whether it is consonant with international law derived from other sources.
		There is certainly nothing to oblige the Security Council, acting within its terms of reference, to carry out a full evaluation of the possibly relevant rules and circumstances before proceeding to the decisions it deems necessary.
		Since, as I understand the matter, a decision of the Security Council, properly taken in the exercise of its competence, cannot be summarily reopened, and since it is apparent that resolution 748 (1992) embodies such a decision, the Court has at present no choice but to acknowledge the pre-eminence of that resolution.

		While the prevailing opinion is that an electoral deadlock would force Denny Hastert into the role of acting president, the actual acting president could be none other than George W. Bush.
		If they fail to do so, the Succession Act, passed pursuant to the 20th Amendment, provides that the Speaker of the House shall step down from the position of Speaker and become acting president.
		Furthermore, in an election where every question appears to be headed to the court, the selection of Speaker is so clearly immune from judicial scrutiny because of the deference due to Congress in such matters that any legal challenge would be quickly shown the door.
