Assassination attempt NOTE: Where
the word "none" is in place of a
vice-president's name, that means that their
was no vice-president at that time. Until the
25th Amendment to the Constitution, which
took effect in in 1967, there was no legal
procedure to replace a vice-president who
became president upon the death of the
sitting president, resigned, or died in
office. Until President Nixon appointed
Gerald
Ford to be his new
vice-president (following Vice-President
Agnew's resignation), in 1974, all vacancies
remained unfilled until the next presidential
election and the inauguration of the new
vice-president. In the case of both
Vice-Presidents Ford and Rockefeller, a few
months did pass without a sitting
vice-president while they awaited
confirmation by the Senate.
