Is the Senate Able to Elect a President?
The article argues the Constitution assigns the Vice President as President of the Senate and forbids the Senate from naming a President.

The 1792 law clarifies that the Senate cannot elect a President. it must defer to the President pro tempore only as a temporary presiding officer, and the people ultimately determine succession.
