Perhaps the question should be clarified to read: Name the three presidents who were immediately elected after serving as vice president under a president that served two, and only 2 full terms.

Truman became president after FDR died, but FDR served 3+ terms and Truman was elected on his own in 1948
Nixon served 2 terms under Ike, but wasn't elected until 8 years later
Our current POTUS was elected 4 years after BHO had served his 2 terms.

So the obvious answer to the newly reworded question is:

John Adams (Washington)
Martin Van Buren (Jackson)
George H.W. Bush (Reagan)
