TIMESTAMPS BELOW!
Many of the most influential Vice Presidents in United States history have gone on to become Presidents, among their many accomplishments. Men like Lyndon B. Johnson and Theodore Roosevelt were called upon to take over the Oval Office after Presidents were assassinated, while VPs like Gerald Ford took the highest office due to scandal. However, men like Walter Mondale significantly changed the office of the vice president. WatchMojo chooses the ten most important Vice Presidents of the United States.

Why is Joe Biden on this list? With all of his cringeworthy comments he shouldn't have made this list.
I’m shocked they had John Tyler, he was hated by his whole party.
u forgot mike pence
Teddy was the best Vice President and Then best president .
Henry Wallace look him up
My favorite VP and P was here, Theodore Roosevelt
I wish that joe Biden would run for president
It appears that WatchMojo doesn’t know shit about Vice Presidents.
If Theodore Roosevelt could come back from beyond to comment on his 6 1/2 month tenure as Vice President, he would rate himself very lowly as Vice President. In fact, if a political cartoonist pictured him as Rhett Butler and the office of Vice President was Scarlett O'Hara and Theodore mentions Rhett's famous last words, Theodore would certainly have highly praised the political cartoonist.
Dick Cheney ahead of Biden? Come on, WatchMojo. Come on.
What a creepy thumbnail o.O
@WatchMojo.com Biden was VP until 2017
LBJ was a horrible human and horrible president burn in forever
LBJ for life
Not Calvin Coolidge??
Lyndon Johnson was only instrumental in planning Kennedy’s death.
I have actually been doing some history research into Nixon and I must admit yes his record is better than most people think. He was a popular vice president and was popular in his first term. He just got greedy and vengeful against the Democrats with Watergate, not to mention paranoid. If he had just not been stupid with his 2nd term he would be remembered as a fairly successful president.
I'd switch Walter Mondale and Truman
You forgot to mention that Al Gore saved us from Manbearpig
How is dick Cheney on this list.
Joe Biden was and is a jerk.
