I personally think that the primary goal of the VP is to help get elected.  That is he or she is media-PR figure who helps win voters. 

Of course they can take on whatever administrative or consulting role that the President gives him.  It can be a position with a lot of freedom, but none of the responsibilities.

They're just a senior adviser with a far higher profile, at least in the past few administrations.
