Office of the President



I had to do some research about the Office of the President of the US. According to Wiki I have to be a Natural Born Citizen of the US, Over the Age of 35, and have been a permanent resident in the United States for at least fourteen years. I will meet all three of those in two years. I didnt realize 35 was the minimum age to "apply"

These are NOT requirments, just facts:
* Thirty-one of forty-two Presidents had military service records; all but one of them (James Buchanan) served as an officer.
* Every president has had prior experience as a Congressman, Senator, Cabinet Secretary, Governor, General in the U.S. Army, or as Vice President of the United States.
* Every president to date has been a white male.
* Every president to date has been a Christian[citation needed]; all but one have been Protestants, with the most common denomination being Episcopalian; John F. Kennedy has been the only Roman Catholic. Ronald Reagan was baptized a Catholic, but he was reared in the Disciples of Christ faith by his mother.

So the thought hit me tonight...Maybe I could run for president....My Platform would be "You are full of Shit" In all the debates, anytime my opponent said something...my response would be "You are full of shit" You cant live up to those promises.

Really I just want to say that in a debate, on National TV....
