if both the president and the vice president can no longer serve, who becomes president?
Answer: If both the President and the Vice President of the United States can no longer serve, the next in line to become President is the Speaker of the House of Representatives. This succession order is outlined in the Presidential Succession Act of 1947. If the Speaker of the House is also unable to assume the presidency, the line of succession continues with various officials, including members of the President’s cabinet, in a specific order defined by law.
