John Adams was the first President to serve as both Vice President (under George Washington), then President. Historians add his administration along with two-term George Washington to make the "Federalist Era". He was a one-term president (as was his son, John Quincy Adams). From John Adam's presidency through John Quincy Adam's administration, the Secretary of State will become elected the presidency during the time some call the era of Congressional "King Caucus" nominating presidents.
