Vice Presidential Election Amendment (Debating)

[bore]

The President doesn't really have much control over the VP at the moment, as in he can't fire them once they're in office, so I imagine that relationship between the two offices would be kept the same. But I'm not inclined to support this, because I think it's very important, as the job presently is, to keep the executive all on one side. If this went through the president would not only have no control over a successor, but the VP would mainly transform into an extra senator (as the tie breaking vote is the offices main official power) further weakening the separation of powers. If the system changes as Yankee alludes to then obviously this should be thought about more.
