SUMMARY:Exhibition: Presidents in Waiting
DESCRIPTION: John Adams\, perhaps our most cantankerous founding fathe
	r\, viewed the office of the vice president as the "most insignificant
	 office" ever invented by man. Adams would probably have never guessed
	 that 14 vice presidents would succeed to the presidency. The National
	 Portrait Gallery exhibition on the vice presidency will focus on thes
	e men\, almost one-third of America's presidents\, and how they - upon
	 the death or resignation of an incumbent or by winning election on th
	eir own - became presidents. If some still remain unconvinced about th
	e significance of the vice president and those who occupied it\, this 
	exhibit will show that most of the vice presidents who succeeded to th
	e presidency were highly capable political figures with the experience
	 and aptitude to be president. Co-curators of the exhibition are Sidne
	y Hart\, senior historian\, and James Barber\, historian.General Infor
