"Serve as acting president when necessary."

Explanation: The Constitution and the 25th Amendment make the vice president the immediate successor and the official who becomes acting president if the president is incapacitated. The VP also presides over the Senate and can cast tie-breaking votes. The VP is not the president's Chief of Staff, does not have a formal role as the main advisor (though many VPs advise the president), and does not independently enact enforcement of laws.
