Ford 1979-1981, Brown 1981-1985, and Ford 1985-1989 seems inevitable.

He'd actually be eligible for another term in 1988 then, since he ascended to the presidency in May 1979 here, so after more than half of Rocky's second term has passed.

Yes but he'd also be 75 and he was never the Nixonian type who really, really wanted the job.

And he would be 80 by the time a hypothetical second (third?) term ended anyway.

True, his dream was always to become speaker of the House, which obviously never happened as Republicans were always in the minority during his leadership tenure. However, Ford definitely didn't want to be a placeholder which is not only why he sought a full term in 1976, I think he may have wanted to run in 1980 as well. He just didn't because Reagan seemed hard to beat then, but Ford didn't officially rule out a candidacy until March 1980 at the time. Who knows, if Reagan won the nomination in 1976 and lost to Carter, Ford's time may have been in 1980.
