Cheney blasts Biden over role of US vice president
News Type: Event — Seeded on Sun Dec 21, 2008 6:40 PM EST
Article Source: Raw Storyadvertisement
US Vice President Dick Cheney on Sunday clashed with his successor over the proper role of his office, suggesting Joseph Biden might "diminish" the importance of the vice presidency.
Cheney's pointed remarks were a contrast to the cordial public tone that has prevailed so far as President George W. Bush prepares to hand over power to president-elect Barack Obama on January 20.
The outgoing vice president, whose term ends in a month, rejected criticism from vice-president-elect Biden who had said during the election campaign that Cheney had overstepped his constitutional role.

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user
has on the current conversation.
The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd
row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera).
Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

I submit, for Mr. Cheney's consideration and examination, The Constitution of the United States of America.
This obscure and misunderstood piece of political text, which has evidently escaped his notice, is pretty clear about the roles of the VPOTUS.
