→Campaign mode
Isn't it detrimental when a president is in constant campaign mode during his/her first term? Perhaps it would be better to allow only one term. And at the next election the people of the U.S. should decide whether to honor him/her with the right to preside the Senate (together with the current vice president) for the next 4 years. --[[User:James2|James2]] ([[User talk:James2|talk]]) 16:52, 20 October 2019 (EDT)

:Bill Clinton wrote the ''How To'' manual with permanent campaign. It's how he survived impeachment. Baby Bush's slide in the polls was a result of his inability to read the manual. I've never seen Melania as a guest on the ''Ellen Show'', while Mr. Michael Robinson Obama was a permanent fixture.
:As to presiding over the Senate, the VP never goes to Capital Hill, unless he needs to be on hand for potential tie-breaking vote, which is rare. It's strictly a ceremonial post that's occupied usually by freshmen Senators so they get to learn parliamentary rules and procedures by the Senate Parliamentarian who tutors them over their right shoulder while a lone Senator comes to floor to rage on some important minority issue while everyone else is in an important committee meeting.
