    Question: What are the requirements to become President?

    Answer: The United States Constitution outlines the requirements for President in Article 2. This article of the U.S. Constitution also outlines the many powers of the President and Executive branch of government.

    Section 1 of Article 2 of the U.S. Constitution states that a President must:

    • be a natural born citizen of the united States
    • be at least 35 years old
    • have lived in the U.S. for at least 14 years

    In addition, the 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution states that a President may not serve more than 2 terms of 4 years each, even if they have only served as President for 2 or more years of one of those terms.

    I am amazed to the fact that our country does not require a thorough back round check on Presidential candidates. After all most employers will do a complete a credit, criminal, employer and personal references. Has anyone heard of the saying, "Where there is smoke there is fire"? Keep in mind that I am not saying these things to be true but it sure would have been nice if the main stream media would have done there job and investigated such things as to Obma's associations past and present. How long was Obma a Senator and what executive experience does he have? Change what.. Socialist Marxist

    i think you should have at least four years of military experience to become president...im in the military and from what i heard obama is going to downsize the military and their will be paycuts.....hes not really for the veterans...so when it comes to veterans and their benefits..i think mccains more fit for the job.

    The Mike guy is right because Obama has nooooo expirience compared to mccain and to the dude that said the only reason McCain has more expirience is because hes older that is OBVIOUS.. thats the point. And how is Obama going to prove he is a natural born citizen if hes from Kenya
