Here is a random tidbit – the order of who becomes president down the line if the president dies or is removed from office:
1. Vice President
2. Speaker of the House of Representatives
3. President Pro Tempore of the Senate
4. Secretary of State
5. Secretary of the Treasury
6. Secretary of Defense
7. Attorney General
8. Secretary of the Interior
9. Secretary of Agriculture
10. Secretary of Commerce

12. Secretary of Health and Human Services

The Secretary of Education became president in Battlestar Galactica after the planet with all of the other high office members was destroyed. Just FYI.
