I'm not so sure. The Kennedy / Johnson scenario was addressed in the 22nd. A president is limited to 10 yrs so he may be eligible to serve another 2 yrs not by being elected.
Don't know if it's come up before.
Makes Scalia's untimely death dven more important.

Not.
A VP who serves less than half of a deceased President’s term may run for two terms of his own. But a person who has served two full terms of his own cannot be elected VP in the hopes of serving two more years, just as he could not run for a third term as President while promising to resign after two years!
