| totalwar23 said: the 12th Amendment states that if you are ineligible for president, you're ineligible for Vice President so if you've already serve two terms, you're ineligible. But I don't know if that applies to term limits. |
"The Twelfth Amendment explicitly precluded from being Vice President those ineligible to be President: people under thirty-five years of age, those who have not inhabited the United States for at least fourteen years, and those who are not natural-born citizens. It is unclear if the Twenty-second Amendment's term-limiting provisions prevent two-term Presidents from becoming Vice Presidents (see that article for a fuller discussion)."

It doesn't say anything about terms. maybe that is implied? Or maybe I should just ask the Supreme Court...
