The US president, George Bush, will undergo what aides described as a routine colonoscopy tomorrow, temporarily leaving vice-president Dick Cheney in charge.

The White House press secretary, Tony Snow, said Mr Bush will have the procedure done at his Camp David retreat in Maryland.

A colonoscopy is a test that allows doctors to look inside the large intestine for possible tumours. Mr Snow said the procedure the president is undergoing will be a follow-up to a test he had in 2002...

...It was only the second time in history that the constitution's presidential disability clause was invoked. Ronald Reagan was the first to invoke the 25th Amendment since its adoption in 1967 as a means of dealing with presidential disability and succession.
