Bill also indicates, “I will be her VP, and if anything happens to her, God forbid, I will happily be president of the United States again. It’ll be Bill Clinton 2, bigger and blacker.” [SNL]
In spirit, the 12th amendment in combination with the 22nd amendment should forbid it. However it's not It's not 100% explicit because the 22nd amendment says that no person can be elected more than twice to be president.

the 12th amendment

Quote:
But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States
the 22nd amendment

Quote:
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.
Really, that should make him constitutionally ineligible to be Vice President.
