«Vice President" - a word often heard on television, on the radio and found us in the media.And what does it mean?The word "vice" comes from Latin, where at one time it meant certain responsibilities, vices.Vitstsereksom was acting king, then - governor.Modern dictionaries can be read that the console includes a meaning of the word "deputy."In fact, the meaning remains the same as in the old days."Vice-President" literally - the deputy president.The phrase applies in relation to the head of state, and against the head of a large company or organization.
first time this concept entered the United States.It appeared there was a government post in 1789.John Adams served until 1797 as head of state in his absence.The Vice-President is elected in the same way and by the same means as the head of state, and for the same length of time.By the way, the US vice president will soon become president of the US.

-
In the case of adding duties as head of state, if the provisions of the transfer of power to the vice-president of the opponents of the new head of a great opportunity to persuade the former to his side.
-
After the abdication of the head of state his position was held by the Vice-President, it was both times, which led to clashes supporters.
title "vice president" exists in Russia since the 18th century.The value of the position is essentially the same as that in the state - the deputy head.IeActing president of the company in his absence or with his employment.As a rule, the vice-president of a company led by one of the company's activities, it is logical to avoid the very shadow role.Currently, such a position in his state are companies such as Samsung, Microsoft, Kaspersky Lab, etc.
Here is a story that word.And if the state at the time to resign, the giants of the domestic and foreign business successfully continue to introduce.There is something to think about ...
