How would you amend the U.S. constitution?

Regarding making the VP more powerful. The VP gets as much power as the president lets him have. Powerful VPs like Cheney and Gore have been men who were in step with the president on the major issues before being picked. VPs picked to satisfy a constituency never do have any power. Honestly, the VP really doesn't have any power, even the tiebreaker he has in the senate has never been used against the president, so it really is a presidential power.

Well yeah, that is how it is. However if we amend the constitution to give him more power, that'll change.
