Los Angeles, CA (WFN) -- The role of Vice President may not be a trivial one, but there's a lot of trivia associated with it.

And all of it appears in an upcoming book "Second String: Trivia, Facts and Lists About the Vice Presidency and It's Vice Presidents" (VicePresidents.com) put together by VicePresidents.com, a web-magazine dedicated to the job of being second banana for the President.

Some of the trivia the staff has uncovered include...

-- Only four V.P.s have ever been elected president after being a Vice President. The last one was George Herbert Walker Bush, and before him it was Martin Van Buren in 1836.

-- Until the 25th Amendment was passed in 1967, when a Vice President died while serving his term, no one replaced him and the slot was left empty.

-- Dick Cheney is the only Vice President to be both Chief of Staff and the Secretary of Defense.

-- Finally, Cheney is one of very few V.P.s who is older than the President he serves.
