The Twelfth Amendment
The Twelfth Amendment declared that a single vote should be cast for both the president and vice president. Before this, it was possible for the president and vice president to be elected from different parties and they would be at odds with each other if each followed their party doctrine.

Which two vice presidents were not elected in a national election?

I can only think of one: Gerald Ford. All other vice-presidents who later became president were at least elected vice-president first. However, Ford was not elected: the elected vice-president, Spiro Agnew, resigned due to criminal charges against him; Nixon nominated Ford as a replacement, and Ford became president when Nixon himself resigned. If you mean "not elected president", then there have been several. John Tyler was the first man to be elevated to the presidency because of the death of the elected president; he was referred to derogatorily as "His Accidency" because of it.
