how just another example of you have to have an empowered white house chief to give you a reality check. richard nixone threatening to prosecute john kennedy or hubert humphrey or george mcgovern? absolutely unthinkable, outrageous, the auntie doubt. the kind of white house chief of staff should just drive a stake through the moment it's even broached. but that is coming with the job. host: what about the role of the vice president? there's a kind of relationship he or she could have with a president. guest: it's funny you should bring that up, because i talked to dick cheney about it. dick cheney was of course, people forget, but he was gerald ford's 35-year-old white house chief of staff way back when, in the 70's. obviously, later became may be most powerful vice president in modern history. cheney told me that the white house chief of staff has more power than the vice president. that's true, except when cheney was vice president. general, vice presidents are really like spare tires. they really do not do much in terms of governing. they famously attend funerals. the vice president
