Just a quick question- is any vp not a president loyalist?

Andrew Johnson wasn't, probably the last one, he was a Democrat while Lincoln was a Republican.

I wonder how different, if at all, our history would be if the original plan for VP had stayed in place. Could you imagine Trump having Hillary as his VP. From a cynical note, I bet assassinations would have been a more real threat.

Why so, it was just a mind exercise. Remember when the Constitution was written the highest electoral vote was the president and the 2nd vote getter was the vice president. Granted they quickly change that, but I just wonder if you constantly had the 2 top vote getters in president and vice president how our country would've been different. Obviously since they would be from different aspects there would be more inclination that if the top guy was gone the opposition would get the presidency. It actually wasn't referring to trump and Hillary even I referenced it, as much as just over the past 250 years how it would have gone.

That's kind of a given, at least in my lifetime. I mean Trump doesn't have to worry about Pence going off-brand with his messaging in the way someone like the head of HHS would.
