You're missing Tricky Dick. He was Ike's Veep, but didn't become POTUS until eight years later. Also, I'd set Van Buren as an alternate answer to Martin Van Buren. With the "accept last word" thing, it takes Buren and Martin Van Buren, but not Van Buren. I thought I was going nuts for a moment.

Thanks for the catches. Fixed Van Buren and added Nixon.

Ditto. Oh, and you might consider Al Gore as a bonus answer. ;-)

Always a great trivia question: name the last sitting VP to be elected President prior to George H.W. Bush... people are usually shocked when they realize (or are told) the answer is Van Buren.
