United States presidential line of succession - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A specific question of the ability of a President pro tempore to act, as the "largely honorific post is traditionally held by the longest serving Senator of the majority party." For example, from January 20, 2001 to June 6, 2001, the President pro tempore was the 98 year-old Senator Strom Thurmond of South Carolina. Upon the death of President William Henry Harrison in 1841, after a brief hesitation, Vice President John Tyler took the position that he was President and not merely Acting President upon taking the Presidential Oath of Office. In 1981, after President Reagan was shot — at a time when Vice President Bush was traveling in Texas — Secretary of State Alexander Haig responded to a reporter's question regarding who was running the government by stating that he was "in charge" at the White House. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/United_States_presidential_line_of_succession

George J. Mitchell Department of Special Collections & Archives Following the 1986 elections, Mitchell was elected Deputy President Pro Tempore, a position which had not been filled since Senator Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minnesota) occupied it in 1977. President Bush called for no net loss of wetlands as a national goal; Senator Mitchell's goal was not only to protect and prevent loss, but to restore and enhance the wetland and grassland resources where many migratory birds live. As President Bush had vetoed a similar bill in 1990, it was Mitchell's job, as majority leader, to help craft a bill which would win bipartisan support in the Democratic-controlled Congress and the signature of the Republican President. library.bowdoin.edu /arch/mitchell/research/accom.htm

Walter Mondale on Government Reform Mondale was referring to Senate Resolution 17, which created the leadership position of Deputy President Pro Tempore in the Senate. Mondale identified Nelson Rockefeller's chairing of the Domestic Council as a mistake and observed that vice presidents too often took minor functions "in order to appear that their role was significant." Instead of specific assignments, he preferred to remain a generalist and a troubleshooter, someone consulted on all issues. The resolution states that any member of the Senate who has held the office of president or vice president of the United States will be named to the position. www.govote.com /Economic/Walter_Mondale_Government_Reform.htm
