During the presidential history of the 1990s and early 21st century, we saw a situation in which an incumbent was defeated for re-election, his successor serving two full terms in office, and then the original incumbent's son winning election in an open race and going on to serve two terms.

This same situation has happened before in a state-level race, involving a person who would later become president.  When and where was it, and who were the people involved?

Clue #1:  The office was governor.

CA, 1962-1982: Pat Brown, Reagan, Jerry Brown
Incidentally, Pat Brown defeated Nixon.

Who was the last sitting Representative to be elected President?
Nobody. Trick Question. I really don't know.

I'll ask a question since J.J. forgot to:

Who was the first president to throw out a ceremonial first pitch at a baseball game?

Taft?

This then living president was "seen" in the Star Trek, the Original Series.  Who was it?
Eisenhower?
