I gather you skipped your grade-school civics class? Bill
Clinton is barred from running for president OR VICE president
for the rest of his life. Since the VP is "one heartbeat away"
from the presidency, he is ineligeble for either office. I
think it also makes him ineligeble to be president of the
Senate, as well.

I don't think that is true.

The constitution says:

The 22nd Amendment

Section 1. 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. But this Article shall not apply to any person holding the office of
President when this Article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not
prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as
President, during the term within which this Article becomes operative from
holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder
of such term.

Section. 2. This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been
ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of
three-fourths of the several States within seven years from the date of its
submission to the States by the Congress.

The prohibition is against being elected not being appointed in the event of
succession.

IIRC there was some talk of Bush Sr. naming Ronald Reagan as VP in 88 and it
has been proposed other times as well.

I don't think you need to worry, Hillary wants the power for herself.
