The Constitution Says Specifically: The Tenth amendment lists that the government only has certain powers that are listed in the constitution. The president only has the power to VETO (deny) a law or pass on a law. The other branches only have powers similar to what the president has to do. Basically the government has to pass laws for the people to follow that is all constitutional.
No amendments address torture, but it is part of the Geneva convention and considered a rule that all should have and follow.
Of the 14 U. S. Vice Presidents who became President, the only one whose presidency did not immediately follow his vice presidency is Richard M. Nixon. He did run for president while still the incumbent vice president, but he lost that election (1960) and did not run again for president until 8 years later. It's interesting that Nixon preceded Lyndon Johnson as vice president, but Johnson preceded Nixon as president.
One rule that the government and the president have to follow is to protect, defend, and go by the Constitution, or they can be, and might be, impeached.
