Duties of the Vice President

There are numerous articles floating around about the duties of the Vice President, especially in this last election cycle, and most of them have missed the boat. The Vice President is President of the Senate, which means he/she/it gets to set the rules of the Senate and this is outlined in Rule XVI.

Mr. Biden's claim that the Vice President only has the power to break a tie is wrong and he knows it.

I hope he pays more attention after taking his oath.
