Gerald Ford was appointed vice president and became president when President Nixon resigned. Ford was never elected as president or as vice-president.

Nelson Rockefeller was appointed Vice President to replace Ford. He and Ford are the only two vice presidents who not elected to that office.

The other U. S. Presidents who were never elected President were John Tyler, Millard Fillmore, Andrew Johnson and Chester A. Arthur. They were the first four elected Vice Presidents to assume the Presidency upon the death of the President. Unlike the next four to do so, they were not subsequently reelected.
