WI Ford had been less demanding in '80 and Reagan had picked him as his running mate? Let's assume the Republicans still won.

The big change comes in 1988. Ford was only two years younger than Reagan and probably would not have run for election in 1988 at the age of 75. With no heir apparent, both sides of the election would have been wide open.

I'm pretty sure that had Ford been picked as Reagan's VP, and had the assassination attempt been successfull, he would NOT be able to run in 1984 due to the 25th Amendment have served the majority of 2 terms (the remainder of Nixons' term which was over half, and pretty much all of OTL Reagan's term).
