Yes. Running for national office require a great deal of effort, money and time away from work even if you have powerful friends who are pressuring you to run. If you have not aquired any rich and/or powerful supporters, that is the first step unless you are very rich or have a rich family.

When can a vice president run for office?
A candidate for vice president of the U.S. does not run separately. The VP candidate is selected as a running mate by the candidate for president, and they run as a team. Back in the beginning, they did run separately: the person with the most votes was president, and the one with the second most was vice president. That system didn't last very long; rivals who'd fought for election didn't usually team up too well. (But it could happen within a party!) A VP can run for president later if the person's party selects him or her as the candidate or if the person decides to run independently.
Can a sitting vice president who has served eight years in office under the same president be picked to run again as a vice president by another person running for president?
Legal schollars are not agreed on this point, but there is no explicit limit in the Constitution to how many terms a person may be elected to the office of Vice-President. The two term limit applies only to the office of President. YES they can
