7 Vice Presidents took over and became president, when the sitting President died in office. The other 7 VPs were elected to the VP spot, then ran for office of President and won. And 7 Vice Presidents have themselves died while in office. 14 deaths while in office, and we've only had approximately 88 total VPs and Presidents. Those are interesting stats.

Did Richard Nixon get to keep his pension and secret service detail?
According to a 1974 opinion by the Department of Justice concerning President Richard Nixon's resignation from office, a President who resigns before his official term of office expires is entitled to the same lifetime pension and benefits that are authorized other former Presidents. However, a President who is removed from office by impeachment forfeits his pension and related benefits. The ruling states that The FPA [Former Presidents Act] provides certain benefits to "former Presidents." A former President is defined in Section (f) as a person who has been President, is not currently President, and who was not removed from office pursuant to impeachment and conviction in the Senate. The statutory language is unambiguous and Mr. Nixon clearly meets the statutory definition of a former President.1

Why is former presidents are still called president?
Former presidents are not called "Mr. President" - at least, not by those who remember their history. Despite what you might see in the popular media, the correct form of address for a former president of the United States is to use the title of the highest post that he held before becoming president. This courtesy was established by George Washington; the only exceptions to this rule are for former presidents that go on to hold other posts after their administration has ended (Taylor, who became a Senator, and Taft, who became Chief Justice of the Supreme Court). Thus, William Clinton should be addressed as "Gov. Clinton", as he was governor of Arkansas. G. H. W. Bush should be "Ambassador Bush", as he was ambassador to the UN. G. W. Bush should be "Gov. Bush", for his term in Texas. And President Obama will become "Senator Obama" once he leaves office.
