What this thread is asking about is what Vice President of the United States would do the most damage to the USA if they somehow became president without being elected as president. This also applies to people who went on to become president later by being elected on the top of the ticket. It even applies to vice presidents who became president without being elected becoming the president earlier than OTL. For example, if you think that LBJ would have botched the Cuban missile crisis, you can consider him, as worldwide nuclear war would probably do damage to the USA. You can use an OTL example for your argument if you want to, like Ford. We can assume that the president resigns or something and there is no big reaction from the country or world, the focus is on the VP. You can use long term impacts as well as short term impacts. You can use post 1900 pods. If I didn't clarify anything, I'll edit this post.
