John Adams was the only one who suffered this indignity, In those days, the presidential candidate who finished second was made the vice president. Thomas Jefferson finished behind Adams in 1796 and became vice president, but in 1800 he beat Adams and you might think Adams would be the his vice president, but they changed the law in time for the 1800 election.

He won the first two elections and lost the third.(I did not include John Adams in this list because although he was understood to be a vice presidential candidate in 1788 and 1792, as were several who ran before 1804, officially there were no vice presidential elections before 1804; they were all officially presidential candidates. For those keeping score, Mr. Adams won the Vice Presidency in 1789 and 1792, won the Presidency in 1796, and lost in 1800. Also, although Thomas Jefferson was Vice President when he was elected President in 1800, it was never his intention to run for Vice President. However, he won the Vice Presidency in 1796 because he received more votes for President than John Adams' running mate, Thomas Pinckney.)

That person is the presidential nominee's running mate or the vice-presidential nominee. When the office of the Vice President becomes vacant during a term due to the death, resignation or removal from office of either the President or the Vice President, the President chooses someone to fill the vacancy, but the choice must be approved by both Houses of Congress. A President who completes his/her term does not choose who will succeed him/her.
