Yes.  He was director of the CIA from January 1976 to January 1977.  The vice-president before him was Nelson Rockefeller, and before him was Gerald Ford.  So it’s been 40 years since a former CIA Director was in the position of Vice President, though the term “Director of the CIA” has changed and now refers to the Director of National Intelligence, which is a different position.  Here’s a history of the CIA.

Isn't that sound kind of fishy for the CIA Director to later become the President?
