	President of the Senate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The President of the Senate is the title often given to the presiding officer, or chairman, of a senate.

	THE UNITED STATES SENATE
		The President of the Senate is the Vice-President of the United States, but he or she may vote only in case of a tie vote.
		Furthermore, Senators usually may propose amendments in plenary sessions that are unrelated to the subject of the bill that the Senate is considering.
		If the President notifies Congress that he or she is not disabled, the President resumes the powers and duties of the office unless Congress, by a two-thirds vote of each house, agrees with a determination made by the Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet secretaries that the President remains disabled.

	[No title]
		However, in practice, the Vice President rarely enters the Senate chamber, and the members of the Senate choose a President pro tempore (usually the most senior member of the majority party) to stand in the Vice President's absence.
		However, even the President pro tempore delegates his duties as presiding officer in the Senate chamber to junior members because (unlike in the House) the presiding officer is accorded with little authority.
		By convention, the Vice President presides over very few Senate debates, attending only on important ceremonial occasions (such as the swearing-in of new senators) or at times when his or her vote may be needed to break a tie.

	United States Senate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The United States Senate is one of the two chambers of the bicameral United States Congress, the other being the House of Representatives.
		Blue states are represented by two Democratic Senators; red states, by two Republican Senators; magenta states, by one Senator from each party; and grey states, by an Independent and a Democrat.
		In general, senators are regarded as more important political figures than members of the House of Representatives because there are fewer of them, and because they serve for longer terms, represent larger constituencies (except for House at-large districts, which also comprise entire states), sit on more committees, and have more staffers.

		The Central powers united in a reply which stated merely that they were ready to meet their antagonists in conference to discuss terms of peace.
		The Entente powers have replied much more definitely and have stated, in general terms, indeed, but with sufficient definiteness to imply details, the arrangements, guarantees, and acts of reparation which they deem to be the indispensable conditions of a satisfactory settlement.
		The right state of mind, the right feeling between nations, is as necessary for a lasting peace as is the just settlement of vexed questions of territory or of racial and national allegiance.
