Problem: Given the question: Information:  - An election is a formal decision-making process by which a population chooses an individual to hold public office. Elections have been the usual mechanism by which modern representative democracy has operated since the 17th century. Elections may fill offices in the legislature, sometimes in the executive and judiciary, and for regional and local government. This process is also used in many other private and business organizations, from clubs to voluntary associations and corporations.  - Joseph Robinette "Joe" Biden Jr. (born November 20, 1942) is an American politician who was the 47th Vice President of the United States from 2009 to 2017, having been jointly elected twice with President Barack Obama. A member of the Democratic Party, Biden represented Delaware as a United States Senator from 1973 until becoming Vice President in 2009.  - Impeachment is the process by which a legislative body formally levels charges against a high official of Government. Impeachment does not necessarily mean removal from office; it is only a formal statement of charges, akin to an indictment in criminal law, and is thus only the first step towards removal. Once an individual is impeached, he or she must then face the possibility of conviction via legislative vote, which then entails the removal of the individual from office.  - An indictment, in the common law system, is a formal accusation that a person has committed a crime. In jurisdictions that use the concept of felonies, the most serious criminal offence is a felony; jurisdictions that do not use the concept of felonies often use that of an indictable offencean offence that requires an indictment.  - A person is a being, such as a human, that has certain capacities or attributes constituting personhood, which in turn is defined differently by different authors in different disciplines, and by different cultures in different times and places.  - A running mate is a person running together with another person on a joint ticket during an election. The term is most often used in reference to the person in the subordinate position (such as the vice presidential candidate running with a presidential candidate) but can also properly be used when referring to "both" candidates, such as by saying Barack Obama and Joe Biden were running mates in 2008 and 2012.  - The Vice President of Brazil ( Portuguese : Vice-presidente do Brasil ) is the second - highest ranking government official in the executive branch of the Government of Brazil , preceded only by the president . The Vice President 's primary role is to replace the president on the event of his or her death , resignation , or impeachment , and to temporarily take over the Presidency while the President is abroad , or otherwise temporarily unable to carry out his or her duties . The Vice President is elected jointly with the president as his or her running mate . The office has existed since the Proclamation of the Republic in 1889 , although it was only officially instated as of the 1891 Constitution . It has been in place throughout all of Brazil 's republican history , save for the fifteen years of the Vargas Era , when it was abolished . Since the Proclamation of the Republic in 1889 , seven Vice Presidents have been called upon to replace former Presidents , including the first Vice President , Floriano Peixoto , as well as Nilo Peçanha , Delfim Moreira , Café Filho , João Goulart , José Sarney , and , most recently , Itamar Franco . Four of these instances were due to death of the incumbent , two due to resignation , and one due to impeachment .  - Criminal law is the body of law that relates to crime. It regulates social conduct and proscribes whatever is threatening, harmful, or otherwise endangering to the property, health, safety, and moral welfare of people. It includes the punishment of people who violate these laws. Criminal law varies according to jurisdiction, and differs from civil law, where emphasis is more on dispute resolution and victim compensation than on punishment.  - Barack Hussein Obama II (; born August 4, 1961) is an American politician who served as the 44th President of the United States from 2009 to 2017. He was the first African American to serve as president, as well as the first born outside the contiguous United States. He previously served in the U.S. Senate representing Illinois from 2005 to 2008, and in the Illinois State Senate from 1997 to 2004.    Given the paragraphs above, decide what entity has the relation 'instance of' with 'position'.

Please answer this: Information:  - A privateer was a private person or ship that engaged in maritime warfare under a commission of war. The commission, also known as a letter of marque, empowered the person to carry on all forms of hostility permissible at sea by the usages of war, including attacking foreign vessels during wartime and taking them as prizes. Captured ships were subject to condemnation and sale under prize law, with the proceeds divided between the privateer sponsors, shipowners, captains and crew. A percentage share usually went to the issuer of the commission. Since robbery under arms was common to seaborne trade, all merchant ships were already armed. During war, naval resources were auxiliary to operations on land so privateering was a way of subsidizing state power by mobilizing armed ships and sailors.  - The first USS Hornet was a merchant sloop chartered from Captain William Stone in December 1775 to serve under Stone as a unit of Esek Hopkins ' Fleet . Hornet fitted out at Baltimore , then sailed with Hopkins fleet 18 February 1776 . Outside the Virginia Capes , she ran afoul of USS Fly and was unable to accompany the fleet for the amphibious assault on New Providence . She patrolled in the Delaware Bay for nearly a year , then ran the British blockade to convoy merchantmen to Charleston . Documents of service are incomplete after this time but it appears that Hornet fell into British hands on the coast of South Carolina in the summer of 1777 .  - Aft, in naval terminology, is an adjective or adverb meaning, "towards the stern (rear) of the ship", when the frame of reference is within the ship. Example: "Able Seaman Smith; lay aft!". Or; "What's happening aft?"  - The Continental Navy was the navy of the United States during the American Revolutionary War, and was formed in 1775. The fleet cumulatively became relatively substantial through the efforts of the Continental Navy's patron John Adams and vigorous Congressional support in the face of stiff opposition, when considering the limitations imposed upon the Patriot supply pool.  - A fore-and-aft rig is a sailing rig consisting mainly of sails that are set along the line of the keel rather than perpendicular to it. Such sails are described as fore-and-aft rigged.  - A sloop (from Dutch "sloep", in turn from French "chaloupe") is a sailing boat with a single mast and a fore-and-aft rig. A sloop has only one head-sail: if a vessel has two or more head-sails, the term 'cutter' is used, and its mast may be set further aft than on a sloop.   - Commodore Esek Hopkins (April 26, 1718  February 26, 1802) was the only Commander in Chief of the Continental Navy during the American Revolutionary War. He was also an accomplished merchant captain and privateer.  - The American Revolutionary War (17751783), also referred to as the American War of Independence and the Revolutionary War in the United States, was an armed conflict between Great Britain and thirteen of its North American colonies that after onset of the war declared independence as the United States of America.
