Adams and Jefferson were still bitter rivals when they were elected together in 1796, although I'm not sure if that counts since they were candidates from different tickets who just happened to be thrown together by the electoral college.

I also seem to recall that Jackson and Calhoun had their differences.

"Jackson and Calhoun had their differences"? LOL. Nice understatement there. It's not for nothing that Calhoun resigned...

The story that Calhoun resigned due to his animosity with Jackson is a myth. He resigned just 66 days beofre the end of his term and then it was to fill a senate vacancy.
