Hoover Urges New Administrative Vice President Role
Former President Herbert Hoover urged Congress to authorize an administrative vice president to relieve the president of many detailed duties. He argued the duties could be delegated to aides, not suggesting the president is physically unable, but that the job's burdens warrant a new executive role. The idea was discussed on NBC Meet the Press during coverage of President Eisenhower's heart attack. The current vice president would not be suitable to take on these duties.
