The president has some influence over the supreme court, but only to an extent. As previously stated he nominates people to the supreme court, but this in turn is checked by the legislative function in the government so his influence is small here if anything. He does however have the power and right to openly support or criticise the court, thus to an extent influencing some of their decisions.
The President has the power to fill open judge positions by submitting nominees of his choice to the Senate. He can choose people who agree with him on constitutional questions.
The Legislative branch checks the President's influence over the Supreme Court because nominations to the Court can only be appointed with the "advice and consent" (simple majority vote) of the Senate. If the President and majority in Senate represent different parties, this prevents the President from nominating someone whose ideology is too extreme.
The Vice-President does not preside at an impeachment of a President. The Constitution requires that the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court preside over an impeachment trial.
No. The US Supreme Court and International Court are unrelated and have jurisdiction over different types of cases.
No. Only the President of the United States can do this. However, when a law is enacted, and then challenged in the court system, it may be appealed all the way up to the Supreme Court where it may then be ruled unconstitutional.

The United States Constitution includes rigid separation of powers, simultaneously counteracted by a system of checks and balances. The American president as chief executive can influence courts through their selection of nominees based on political leanings. That being said this power in turn is checked and can be negated by the Senate's authority to deny confirmation of judicial nominees.
Former President William Howard Taft (1909-1913) is the only President to serve on the Supreme Court. President Warren G. Harding appointed Taft Chief Justice of the Supreme Court in 1921; he presided over the Court until a few months before his death in 1930.
