Well, your understanding of VP powers and mine are very different. My understanding is that only the POTUS has authority to declassify documents and specifically no one else.

Obama signed an executive order in 2009 granting the authority.

And it's dealing with the executive branch. In the DOD and DOE documents are declassified routinely by somebody other than the POTUS.
