Answer:

The 25th amendment was enacted twice during the Nixon administration because, even though the letter wasn't legal in 1955 Eisenhower had a heart attack and Nixon became acting president. Then a while after that Eisenhower had to have surgery in 1965, and Nixon became president for a period of time.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

United States Constitution says that if the President becomes unable to do his job, the Vice President becomes the President. This can happen for just a little while, if the President is just sick or disabled for a short time.
