No. For one thing, the Constitution says that the Pres. and the V.P. may not come from the same state.

No they can not.. and it has nothing to do with a president that held 2 terms. A husband and wife can not hold those two offices together EVER. Or can an immediate relative such as a brother or father and son.

Yes.....the President gets the nomination of his party. Then he gets to pick his running mate and the party either accepts or rejects it. If for example, Bill Clinton had picked Hillary and the Democrat party had gone along with it, she could have served two terms as VP and had a better chance of becoming President. However, his party probably would not have agreed to it as because THEN AS NOW, Hillary has no credentials for either office.

No policies against it... even with the incontrovertible fact that, because of the fact the vice chairman must be approved with the help of the occasion, it is not too possibly. remember the vice chairman has to help garner votes with the help of calling in communities that the pres could no longer be cherished with the help of.

"Maybe. But then Chelsea might also creep in to join the family affair & start throwing parties in the Whitehouse every week, or Oprah will have a rock concert there every week."

Election law is determined by the Constitution. Since the Constitution doesn't forbid it, it's entirely legal.

Probably Constitution has not said anything to the contrary. But why shall any couple exhaust their opportunities in one go?

They could, but they would have to be legal residents of different states.
