Without looking it up. Can anyone name the only president NOT to have been elected to the office.

Johnson was elected VP and became president upon Kennedy's death.
Ford is correct he was appointed to replace Spiro Agnew, and took over as president upon Nixons resignation, he was never elected to the office.
