The effects of recent vice presidents on the stature of the office have varied over the years. Vice presidents no have more power to get laws changed.
Nine presidents had their terms finished by the vice-president, Eight of these died in office-( four from assassination and four from natural cause ) and one resigned before his term was over.
one
No one - there are no vice presidents in any of the 50 states.
Ten- eight moved up to President when the president died or resigned; one died in office and one resigned before completing his term.
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)
The last time the total number of Presidents and Vice Presidents was the same was near the end of the 19th century, when McKinley was President and Hobart was Vice President. Then after Vice President Hobart died McKinley needed a new running mate. When he was reelected, Theodore Roosevelt was his new Vice President, and the number of V.P.'s then exceeded the number of Presidents by one. The difference of one remained until Franklin Roosevelt was President. He changed Vice Presidents twice (he had a total of three). So at that point, when Roosevelt started his 4th term, the total of vice presidents was three more than the total of presidents. The difference of three remained until Gerald Ford was appointed to replace Vice President Agnew, who resigned in 1973. The difference then became four, where it remains to this day (43 presidents and 47 vice presidents).
The reason that there have been four more U. S. Vice Presidents than there have been U. S. Presidents is due to the eleven Presidents who did not have just one Vice President. Four Presidents, Tyler, Fillmore, A. Johnson and Arthur, had no Vice President (a 4-VP shortage). Six Presidents, Madison, Lincoln, Grant, Cleveland, McKinley and Nixon, each had two Vice Presidents (a 6-VP surplus). One President, Franklin Roosevelt, had three Vice Presidents (a 2-VP surplus). Six extra plus two extra minus four short equals four extra.
