no, you have to be eligible to be put on the ballot to run for president; in practice even if you want to argue that A22.1 doesn't forbid the ballot placement of ineligible candidates (because they've served twice, because they're under 35 etc), it explicitly does forbit that they become president if they've served more than two years of two presidential terms as president or been elected president directly on two occasions, so any votes for such ineligible candidates would be irrelevant and discarded as such
now in theory if we believed the 2020 steal shit that would mean the current president is illegitimate even if he did receive the majority of electoral college votes in 2024, but of course a) he lost 2020 and shit his pants about it and b) nobody would have put him on the ballot in 2024 if they seriously believed he was ineligible through having won twice already; A22 doesn't require that he have *held* the office of president twice, only that he be *elected* to it twice
you also can't run for VP if you've been elected twice, as A12 explicitly forbids this - as such a person would be constitutionally ineligible to be elected president, they are also forbidden from serving as VP

yes, A14.1 explicitly extends constitutional protection to all persons within the US; that's why Bush had to send people to gitmo to torture them
it's possible to argue that this only applies to the actions of State governments rather than the Federal government, but you don't want that argument because it opens up the anti-federalist can of worms again and let's be honest, the Bill of Rights didn't even legally apply to the actions of State governments for the first hundred years (Presser v. Illinois,1886)
it's seriously not a good time to be having arguments about how many rights other people should have if you want to keep the ones you have, and you're a fool if you don't smell that on the wind
