No, an appointed vice president does not need to be confirmed by two-thirds of the Senate. Instead, the U.S. Constitution requires that the vice president be nominated by the president and confirmed by a simple majority of both houses of Congress if the position becomes vacant, as outlined in the 25th Amendment. This process is typically less formal than the two-thirds requirement for other positions, such as treaties or certain appointments.

Who are the the positions are appointed by the president?

The president has the power to appoint Cabinet members, federal judges, diplomats and other officials, but his power is subject to the "Advice and Consent" clause of the U.S. Constitution. This means that a two-thirds majority in the Senate must vote to confirm the appointee. Not all appointees are subject to the "advise and consent" of the Senate though. For example, White House staff and aides do not need to be confirmed by the Senate.
