        Actually, is there such a requirement for VP? You don’t have to meet the requirements to be in the chain of succession, you just get skipped.

          There is. The Twelfth Amendment explicitly says that the Vice President must meet the same eligibility requirements to become President. Which, as it currently stands, means at least 35 years old, a natural born citizen, and resided in the US for the last 14 years.
