To get back to a point that I raised way back in the thread - the question whether there is any constitutional impediment to Bill Clinton being elected as Vice President.

John Hardly responded "a two-term president couldn't run as VP because he couldn't constitutionally fill the presidency in the event of the death or incapacitation of the sitting prez."

But that's my whole point. There's nothing I can see in your constitution that says anything about that. (I looked it up, and gave the link in my earlier post.) It just says that someone can't be elected a third time as President. A Vice President is not elected President, even if he (or she) succeeds because of the death or resignation of the President.

Unless of course your Supreme Court decided that "elected" meant something different in this case. And I imagine the bunch who put Bush into the White House would be capable of doing whatever was necessary to suit him.

Still I'm surprised it doesn't seem to have come up in real life, especially when you've got a power hungry man like Clinton kicking his heels on the side line.
