@Teri_Kanefield Even if it is constitutional, I am reminded of the old tradition that only one person on a ship can be called "captain", regardless of rank.
This is also one reason we quickly amended the Constitution to stop putting the runner-up as VP. It only takes a moment's thought and a little experience with...people like Jordan, to see the obvious outcomes in a moment of crisis.
And if such moment fails to happen by chance, surely it will be nudged along.
