Description

We look at the Vice President who - maybe - described the office as a "bucket of warm spit." He also may have been its most powerful occupant up to his time, and he's responsible in a little way for making two President's careers. He's also the first Vice President to campaign against the President, though since the President wasn't officially campaigning at the time, perhaps it doesn't count.
