Which two steps are required for someone to become Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court?

Election by the Senate, Appointment by the President
Nomination by the President, Confirmation by the Senate
Selection by the current Supreme Court, Approval by the Senate
Nomination by the Senate, Confirmation by the President

The correct answer is: Nomination by the President, Confirmation by the Senate

Unlike option A, where the Senate elects the Chief Justice, the President has the power to nominate a candidate for Chief Justice and the Senate must then confirm that nomination (option B). Option C is incorrect because the current Supreme Court does not have a role in the selection of the Chief Justice. Option D is also incorrect because it attributes the nomination to the Senate, which is not correct. Therefore, option B is the correct answer because it accurately reflects the two required steps for someone to become Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court.
