The article presents information on the U.S. politics and government. A young U.S. President, John F. Kennedy must have known or sensed that, he did not have all time and eternity to accomplish his major objectives. Few people in the U.S. have a more intimate or expert knowledge of the legislative process or have had more skill in manipulating it than U.S. President, Lyndon Baines Johnson. He is also a professional politician in the best sense of the term. Little time should be lost in substituting some more satisfactory mode of establishing the succession to Presidency than the unfortunate order that Congress established in 1947. Under this act, if there is no Vice President at the time the President dies, the Speaker of the House becomes President, the President pro tempore of the Senate is next in line.
