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.

What all of you Obama supporters don't or won't admit he the least qualified by knowledge and experience to be a U.S President. He has yet to produce a birth certificate. He proba;y does not qualify by birth for the office of the president.
The whole election was a shame And a black mark on America. We need a tough leader not a pop star.
