Vice President
vice president until presidents term is up.
Prior to 1967, anytime a president died in office his vice president took the office of president and did not have a vice president for the remainder of that term. Until the ratification of the 25th Amendment to the Constitution, there was no requirement to replace a vice president. For example, Chester Arthur served out the rest of President Garfield's term without a vice president.There have been many occasions in which a President did not have a vice president during one of his terms. For example, Franklin Pierce did not have a vice president for almost all of his term. His vice president, William R. King, died after only 45 days in office.(see the related question)(see Sources and related links below for a complete listing of all of the presidents and their vice presidents, including periods in which they had no vice president)
