You must have missed the part of the 12th Amendment that says if you can't be president, you can't be VP

But the XXII Amendment does NOT say an ex-President who has served two terms cannot be President.

It says he cannot become President by being elected.

You missed the 12th amendment, which says "But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States." - Clinton is constitutionally not eligible to be president, thus can't be Veep.
