Theodore Roosevelt was the Republican candidate for Vice President in 1900 and for President in 1904, and he was the Progressive Party candidate for President in 1912. Franklin D. Roosevelt was the Democratic Party Candidate for Vice President in 1920 and for President in 1932, 1936, 1940 and 1944.
The president and vice-president belong to the same party- they are nominated and elected as a team. Nowadays, the presidential candidate often chooses the vice-presidential candidate and he or she may not be a national party leader. Of course running for VP can increase ones standing in the party.

Technically the political party's convention. Usually the person that they nominate will be the candidate that is recommended by the Presidential candidate.
If a vice presidential candidate drops out of the race, it would depend on the timing and the reasons for their withdrawal. If it happens before the party's nomination, the party may choose a replacement candidate. If it happens after the nomination, the party may still proceed with the original candidate or choose a new one through a replacement process determined by party rules. Ultimately, the party would have the authority to make this decision.

No, each party's nominee for US President selects the party's nominee for Vice President, subject to the approval of the party. The election of 1796 was the only US presidential election in which the presidential candidate of the opposing political party won the vice presidency instead of the winning presidential candidate's party's choice for running mate. The 12th Amendment to the US Constitution, ratified in 1804, ensures that people of opposing political parties can no longer become President and Vice President in that way, but the likelihood of candidates of opposing parties being elected President and Vice President at the same time still exists for cases in which no presidential or vice presidential candidate receives enough electoral votes while the US House and Senate are controlled by opposing parties.
Each party convention nominates one candidate for president and one candidate for vice-president and the two candidates run as a team. The popular vote can not be split since the voters are really electing electors and the same electors vote for both president and vice-president. Although there are separate electoral votes for president and vice-president, the electors vote for their party's nominee in each.
A candidate for vice president of the U.S. does not run separately. The VP candidate is selected as a running mate by the candidate for president, and they run as a team. Back in the beginning, they did run separately: the person with the most votes was president, and the one with the second most was vice president. That system didn't last very long; rivals who'd fought for election didn't usually team up too well. (But it could happen within a party!) A VP can run for president later if the person's party selects him or her as the candidate or if the person decides to run independently.
