i’m not sure what you mean here. LBJ became President on November 22, 1963, so about one year before the 1964 election, and a year and few months before the end of JFK’s term in January 1965. So the two years rule didn’t apply, and he was eligible to run in 1964 and 1968, [but opted to not run in 1968 because he didn’t think he could win](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidency_of_Lyndon_B._Johnson).
