SENATE CONFIRMATION: MB For VP (Confirmed)

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Alright, nominating MB for Vice President. There should be no legal issues with this one. I am confident MB will do the job well and we should have a productive Congress.

MB is appointed to the role of Vice President.

Don't recall seeing any feedback as to whether or not Sestak would be able to administer this, but in the interest of the expedition I discussed in my office, here we go.

Senators have up to 72 hours to question the nominee.

One aspect of the last few VPs was the failure to make the last post in the notice board listing in full public view bills passed in each chamber and those passing both. It also displayed VP administered slots in both chambers. In my view the absence of this makes the job of the VP harder as well as keeping track of what has passed where. Can you commit to making this last notice board post as it is often termed?

Come on people grill him.

You see no one takes the time to do a real sinister interrogation anymore, it's a lost art.

We are happy with the nominee and have the votes to confirm him. As such there are very few questions to ask.

Then the Senators are expected to state such publicly, obviously.

There have been so many instances where no questions were asked in a confirmation hearing and then afterwards it went badly. The first one I saw was Keystone Phil for Attorney General, who after two months of inactivity, proceeded to try and cease the Presidency Al Haig style. I would hope at least some of those Senators regretted not asking questions.

I motion for a vote on confirmation, Senators have 24 hours to object.

With time having expired on the motion with no objections having been entered, a final vote is now open on confirmation of MB as Vice President.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]
