(1,803 posts)The 12th Amendment states that "no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice President of the United States."
The 22nd Amendment states: No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.
Since Obama is ineligible to serve as President again, he cannot run for Vice President. This isnt opened to debate.
