Best Answer

Four presidents never had a vice president: John Tyler, Millard Fillmore, Andrew Johnson and Chester Arthur.

Four other U.S. Presidents did not have Vice Presidents in their first

term but had a vice-president in a second term: Theodore Roosevelt , Calvin Coolidge , Harry Truman and Lyndon Johnson.

Six other US presidents had their vice-president die or resign and so lacked a vice-president for the rest of that term : James Madison( 1st and 2nd terms),

Andrew Jackson (1st term), Franklin Pierce (1st and only term), Ulysses Grant (2nd term) Grover Cleveland (1st term) and William McKinley ( 1st term).

Pierce's vice-president, William R. D, King, died before he ever got to Washington, so Pierce in essence never had a vice-president.

John Tyler, Millard Fillmore, Andrew Johnson and Chester A. Arthur. In all 4 cases, the President was a VP who took over after their President died, and the office of VP remained empty up until the next election.

The rule has now changed so that if a VP does ascend, he has to appoint a VP himself. So when Richard Nixon resigned, Gerald Ford took up the office and Nelson Rockefeller was appointed as VP.

Why is there more presidents than vice presidents?

The last time the total number of Presidents and Vice Presidents was the same was near the end of the 19th century, when McKinley was President and Hobart was Vice President. Then after Vice President Hobart died McKinley needed a new running mate. When he was reelected, Theodore Roosevelt was his new Vice President, and the number of V.P.'s then exceeded the number of Presidents by one. The difference of one remained until Franklin Roosevelt was President. He changed Vice Presidents twice (he had a total of three). So at that point, when Roosevelt started his 4th term, the total of vice presidents was three more than the total of presidents. The difference of three remained until Gerald Ford was appointed to replace Vice President Agnew, who resigned in 1973. The difference then became four, where it remains to this day (43 presidents and 47 vice presidents).
