The vice president of Bolivia, officially known as the vice president of the Plurinational State of Bolivia, is the second highest political position in Bolivia. The vice president replaces the president in his definitive absence or others impediment and is the ex officio President of the Legislative Assembly.
José Miguel de Velasco Franco was a Bolivian military officer and statesman who served as the fourth president of Bolivia on four occasions: 1828, 1829, 1839–1841, and 1848. Velasco also served as the second vice president from 1829 to 1835 under Andrés de Santa Cruz, though the first two of his terms were as vice president-designate, pending Santa Cruz's arrival to the country.
Bolivia has had seventeen constitutions, including the present one, since its foundation in 1825.
The 1940–42 Bolivian National Congress was a meeting the Bolivian legislature composed of the Chamber of Senators and Chamber of Deputies. It met in La Paz from 12 April 1940 to 1942 during the final four days of the interim government of Carlos Quintanilla and the first two years of the Enrique Peñaranda's presidency.
The president of the Chamber of Deputies is the presiding officer of the lower chamber of the National Congress of Bolivia. The president is currently elected for a one-year term.
Serapio Reyes Ortiz was a Bolivian lawyer, professor, and politician who served as acting President of Bolivia in 1879, after the death of Pedro José de Guerra and the continued absence of Hilarión Daza, and as the ninth Vice president of Bolivia from 1888 to 1892. A member of the Conservative Party, he served as second vice president alongside first vice president José Manuel del Carpio during the administration of Aniceto Arce.
Juan Misael Saracho Campero was a Bolivian lawyer, journalist and politician who served as the 18th vice president of Bolivia from 1909 to 1915. He first served as second vice president alongside first vice president Macario Pinilla Vargas during the administration of Eliodoro Villazón. Nearing the end of Villazón's term in 1913, he ran for the position of first vice president during the second presidential bid of Ismael Montes. He served as first vice president alongside second vice president José Carrasco Torrico.
Gualberto Villarroel assumed office as the 39th President of Bolivia on 20 December 1943, and his term was violently cut short by his death on 21 July 1946. A colonel during the Chaco War, Villarroel and the Reason for the Fatherland (RADEPA) military lodge joined the fledgling Revolutionary Nationalist Movement (MNR) to overthrow President Enrique Peñaranda in a coup d'état.

The Ballivián Cabinet, which comprised the 12th to 14th cabinets of the Bolivian Republic, came into being on October 18, 1841. This was 21 days after José Ballivián assumed office as the 9th president of Bolivia, following a coup d'état that saw him take over from the Third Velasco Cabinet. The cabinet continued to serve until December 23, 1847, when Ballivián resigned from office, and it was subsequently dissolved. Cabinet of Eusebio Guilarte succeeded the Ballivián Cabinet.
The Achá Cabinet constituted the 26th to 29th cabinets of the Bolivian Republic. It was formed on 17 May 1861, 13 days after José María de Achá was sworn-in as the 14th president of Bolivia following his election by the Constituent National Assembly, succeeding the Government Junta. It was dissolved on 28 December 1864 upon Achá's overthrow in a coup d'état and was succeeded by the Cabinet of Mariano Melgarejo.
The Melgarejo Cabinet constituted the 30th cabinet of the Republic of Bolivia. It was formed on 19 June 1867 after Mariano Melgarejo was installed as the 15th president of Bolivia following the coup d'état, succeeding the Achá Cabinet. It was dissolved on 15 January 1871 upon Melgarejo's overthrow in another coup d'état and was succeeded by the Cabinet of Agustín Morales.
The Morales Cabinet constituted the 31st to 32nd cabinets of the Republic of Bolivia. It was formed on 22 June 1871 after Agustín Morales took power in a coup d'état, succeeding the Melgarejo cabinet. It was dissolved on 27 November 1872 when Morales was assassinated. All Ministers of State were ratified in their positions by the new cabinet formed by Morales' successor Tomás Frías.
