Which president was the only vice president to become president without following the president for whom he served as vice-president?

Of the 14 U. S. Vice Presidents who became President, the only one whose presidency did not immediately follow his vice presidency is Richard M. Nixon. He did run for president while still the incumbent vice president, but he lost that election (1960) and did not run again for president until 8 years later. It's interesting that Nixon preceded Lyndon Johnson as vice president, but Johnson preceded Nixon as president.

What branch of government can prevent the President from controlling the Supreme Court?

The Legislative branch checks the President's influence over the Supreme Court because nominations to the Court can only be appointed with the "advice and consent" (simple majority vote) of the Senate. If the President and majority in Senate represent different parties, this prevents the President from nominating someone whose ideology is too extreme.
