Last line of the 12A:

But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.

They would argue that while Obama would constitutionally ineligible to be elected president, nothing in either amendment makes him ineligible to serve as president. Based simply on the text of the amendments, they would have an argument, and it would be up to SCOTUS to settle. They might decide it is a political question and if the people vote for it to allow it. It is not as cut and dried as you might think.
