Best Answer

Gerald Ford was appointed vice-president by Nixon when Agnew resigned and was duly confirmed by the Senate. He became president when Nixon also resigned, so I suppose you could say he was an appointed president.

Can the supreme court determine the successor in case the president and vice president die?

If the president and the vice president die or become incapacitated simultaneously or in any way that prevented the nomination of a new vice president, the speaker of the house is next in the line of succession. While this has never happened, and some believe it is unconstitutional to have a technically unelected president, the 20th amendment gives Congress the power to decide who is next in succession after the vice president, and the law they passed to decide it is the Presidential Succession Act of 1947.
