4. You mean other than the Constitutional line of succession? |

If Reagan had died, he would have been "replaced" by his VP, GHW Bush.

That's just superstition.
In Game of Thrones, GWB would be the "Joffrey."

The line of succession is from President to Vice President to Speaker to etc. So Bush would have replaced Reagan, but if he'd been persuaded to resign, it would have been the Speaker, and I just checked who it was at that time, and it was Tip O'Neill, a Democrat.
