It probably varies artist to artist, but in most cases it's probably just a matter of courtesy. Their contract probably doesn't give them veto rights, but it seems a matter of principal that if an artist requests you don't use it you're kind of a dick if you continue to. That said, if it ain't in the contract and you immediately come out acting all indignant, that's pretty lame. But if you ask nicely and they still say no, by all means, complain away.

The VP is just another glorified adviser at best, the President's got tons of those no matter what. I'm not swayed by the "heartbeat from the Oval Office" angle. Over 58 Presidential terms, only 8 have not been completed by the person elected. No matter who MIGHT, in the rare, ~15%, instance of the elected President not finishing the term, take over, it's not going to make me want to vote for or against someone who would definitely be in the office if I wasn't going to vote for or against them before.
