"The president has asked me if I would serve again as his running mate. I've agreed to do that," he said Tuesday in an interview with The Dallas Morning News.
Cheney's position on the 2004 ticket has been the subject of heightened speculation because of his heart condition. He has had four heart attacks, though none as vice president.
"I've got a doc with me 24 hours a day who watches me very carefully," said Cheney. "If I ran into problems where I felt I couldn't serve, I'd be the first to say so and step down."
More recently, Cheney's value has been questioned because of his connection to a corporate accounting scandal. The Securities and Exchange Commission (news - web sites) is investigating accounting practices at Halliburton Co. while Cheney was its chief executive officer.
Cheney, 61, has already said he would relish a chance to join Bush for any 2004 re-election run. In November, Bush indicated he wanted his vice president to reprise his role, saying "there's no reason for me to change."
Cheney said he did not know when Bush would formally announce his candidacy.

We know that the Arabian plate has the largest and most accessible oil fields due to tectonic plate compression and folding. This is the region where the majority of the oil remains. (Though "Plan Columbia is a backup plan if the Middle East gets too hot) It was why the Taliban in Afganistan were supported by Ronald "McDonald" Reagan, they were fighting the Soviet Union. The Soviets wanted the oil also, and their best path to the Middle East was through Afganistan. The Taliban became our enemy when they refused to be puppets after the politics changed..
Big oil has always been the push behind this, one puppet was supported (Saddam was our ally against the Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran) against another. As long as you keep people fighting, the divide and conquer method always works..
Now Halliburton is pumping Iraqi oil and Exxon execs are sipping the sweet nectar of conquest. Bush is praised as a hero for stopping a dictator that he created. Hmmm..
Remember George Bush's grandfather Prescott Bush? He was a follower of eugenics in America, and funneled money though Union Bank to help Hitler and the Nazis into power in Germany. Prescott Bush, Ford and Disney were all supporters of ethnic cleansing, politely called eugenics, they molded Hitler and created his Nazi empire. Then America defeated Hitler, and were praised worldwide as being heroes..
Create a monster, then destroy the monster you created, getting praise for your noble actions..
George Bush, your lies are becoming visible. Would you like to arrange another "terrorist" crisis to distract people once again?
