The Constitution does not prevent Mr. Clinton from running for vice president." (This is the way lawyers think, how to dispose of the Constitution easily.)

Excuse me the qualifications for Vice President are exactly the same as teh qualifications for President and Since William Jefferson Clinton could not serve as President for more than two years he is disqualified.

As I understand it, there is a question of when the 12 Amendment was passed and thus whether it was meant to exclude the circumstances of a Bill Clinton vice presidency. I heard this put forth in passing by Hugh Hewitt, but I am not quite clear as to the exact premise.

I agree! I also picked up on this statement: "The Constitution does not prevent Mr. Clinton from running for vice president"

OH YES IT DOES! This proves how stupidly ignorant these people are .. and how desperate they are to get back in the WH. Egads, Lord please deliver us from this insanity.
