In fact, the relevant constitutional provisions, their histories, and their purposes all point to the same conclusion: A twice-before-elected President may become Vice-President either through appointment or through election and — like any other Vice-President — may thereafter succeed from that office to the Presidency for the full remainder of the pending term.
the 22nd Amendment’s language about term limits for a president was limited to their time elected to office. “We contend that the Twenty-Second Amendment proscribes only the reelection of an already twice-elected President.”
the 12th Amendment limited vice-presidential succession to the presidency, specifically the amendment’s last sentence: “But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.”
It also quoted then Secretary of State Dean Acheson, who said the issues “may be more unlikely than unconstitutional.”
Some say yes some say no.
