If people on the presidental line of succession died

Gaara! Asked by sillist1s about 1 month ago, 6 answers.

I know that when there's something like a state of the union address going on, one person or so on the list is secluded somewhere and everyone else is present. But...what would happen if someone knew where everyone was and just killed them all? What...

would happen next?

I love American government and history and I'm working on a paper and this question just popped up in my mind...sorry if it's random.

In most circumstances, if something huge like that is happening, they will separate ell of the important people. And hide at least some of them =)

Well... since it hasn't happened yet, I guess their preventative measures are working pretty well.

I know what the line of succession is. I was just curious as to what would happen if they all somehow died and congress couldn't get together to pick a pro tempore or house speaker. Eagle Eye was awesome!
