4 presidents had absolutely no vice president (a few others had no vice president, for a certain period of time, the 4 guys I'm talking about had none at all.) Anyways, those 4 presidents were:

John Tyler, who served as the 10th president from 1841 to 1845

Millard Fillmore, who served as the 13th president from 1850 to 1853

Andrew Johnson, who served as the 17th president from 1865 to 1869

and

Chester Alan Arthur, who served as the 21st president from 1881 to 1885

The first U. S. President to have no vice president at all throughout his entire presidency was John Tyler.

The first President who served while there was no vice president was James Madison, who had no vice president from the time of Vice President Clinton's death in April, 1812 until the end of his first term in March, 1813, and again from the time of Vice President Gerry's death in November, 1814 until the end of his second term in March, 1817.

Franklin Pierce never had a vice president in Washington. His vice-president William King, was sworn in Cuba but was too sick to travel to Washington and died before before actually doing anything as vice-president.

4th President James Madison became the first U.S. President without a Vice President when George Clinton became the first U.S. Vice President to die in office on April 20, 1812.

Oddly enough, James Madison's second Vice President, Elbridge Gerry, also died in office.

The first U.S. President who never had a vice president throughout his presidency was John Tyler, the first Vice President to ascend to the presidency due to the death of the President.

That would be John Tyler who was the VP when the president died and so he became president. In those days, the VP office remained open until the next presidential election.
