Can the Vice President Be Appointed as Secretary of State?

Someone needs to take over the office of the President when the Pres is dead or incapacitated.
Even a simple surgery under anesthesia requires the VP to be the acting President during that time.

Also to protect the spacetime continuum.

Can someone tell me why do we need a vice president?
