The 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibits anyone from being elected U.S. President more than twice, and it prohibits anyone who has served as President or Acting President for at least two years of a term to which someone else was elected President from being elected U.S. President more than once. For example, if Gerald Ford had won the Election of 1976, he would have been ineligible to run again because he served as President more than two years of the second term to which Richard Nixon was elected President.

Can Clinton serve as vice president?

The 12th Amendment would preclude Clinton from the office of Vice President. "But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States." Since President Clinton can not be President again, he can not serve as Vice President.

How many terms can a president serve after being elected what amendment addresses this term limit?

Technically, there is no legal limit to the number of terms a person can serve as U. S. President. The 22nd Amendment to the U. S. Constitution limits the number of times a person can be elected U. S. President to two. Those who previously served at least two years as President or Acting President can be elected only once.

Can a former president serve as vice president?

The original constitution had no requirements for the office of vice president. However, the 12th Amendment, ratified in 1804, said that, "no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States."So that would mean that a vice president would have to meet the requirements to be president laid out in Article II of the Constitution. Principally, the person would have to be born in the United States, be at least 35 years of age and have been a resident of this country for the preceding 14 years. So far, so good. Maybe a former president, like Bill Clinton, could serve as vice president.However, the 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, states:22nd Amendment: 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 President more than once.So this sets up the conundrum. The 22nd Amendment says that Clinton can clearly not "be elected" to the presidency. And the 12th Amendment says that no one can become vice president if they are "ineligible to the office of the presidency."Clinton has been elected to the presidency twice. So he can no longer be "elected" to the presidency, according to the language of the 22nd Amendment. Does that mean he is "constitutionally ineligible" to serve as president, to use the language of the 12th Amendment? If so, he could not serve as vice president. But finding out would certainly make for an interesting Supreme Court case.
