No the exact text is: "But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States."
The "But" changes the landscape - it means all before the "but" is true up until the conditions after the "but" are in effect.
If BJC is ineligible for president, he is ineligible for vice-president, after the "but".
