Pre-requisites for Vice-President

Some of the news items about Sarah Palin are funny and provide great material for jokes, fair or unfair, but this item is serious. It reveals her fundamental lack of understanding about the bedrock issues of our constitution and her willingness to interpret the constitution according to her own self-interest. College classes have pre-requisites because the course material is dependent on knowledge of issues that are foundational to that course. You can't take algebra until you've taken general math. The presidency, or vice-presidency, should have some pre-requisites. One of those should be at least a basic understanding of the constitution.
