Here's a semi serious question. Is there any constitutional basis, considering the two term limit for PRESIDENT, that would prohibit Bill Clinton from being on the ticket as VP?

I believe there is but someone can probably confirm or deny it with more authority than I. It places him in direct succession to the presidency and that is not allowed. Surely you’re not worried about it are you?

Yes. The real question to ask is whether he can function as VP... without having the title.

As an unofficial advisor, Bill Clinton will have more freedom to work behind the scenes.
