No it doesn't. VP's don't ever bother presiding over the Senate unless
there's a chance of a tie vote. There's no upside to it otherwise.

No, he wasn't. He wasn't even the first Republican presidential
candidate (John Fremont in 1856). He was the first Republican president;
is that what you meant?
