I'm pretty sure Bill can't run for VP. And the 3rd in line after VP is Speaker of the House (Paul Ryan, IIRC).

The Twelfth Amendment ends with the following sentence:

"But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States."

It would seem the Constitution agrees with you.

So then, they get Ryan to be VP and install Bill as Speaker. Then they get Ryan to resign. Worth at least two seasons on Netflix.
