                          Concurrent Resolution

Whereas the United States Constitution provides that the Vice President 
  of the United States shall serve as President of the Senate; and
Whereas the careers of the 44 Americans who held that post during the 
  years 1789 through 1993 richly illustrate the development of the 
  nation and its government; and
Whereas the vice presidency, traditionally the least understood and 
  most often ignored constitutional office in the Federal Government, 
  deserves wider attention: Now, therefore, be it
