We usually make a person president when he is around 80 years old. Hence no fast President only slow Presidents.

Yes.  Until the 1930s, Presidents voluntarily limited themselves to 2 terms, following the example of George Washington.  Then the great Liberal Democrat hero, Franklin D. Roosevelt decided he was going to be president for life (died in office during his 4 th term).  So the Constitution was amended in 1951 (the 22nd Amendment) to limit people to two (total) terms.

For the last few years it appears that In the US to be president  you have to:   be at least 35 years old, know the basics in reading, speak as if you've never completed elementary school, be married to a woman and be a Christian.  Oh and can't forget, must have a ton of your father's money at your disposal.\n\nIf you can cover those basic rules, you'll be golden.

Our founders felt that a certain amount of maturity was needed. There are also minimum ages for House of Representatives & Senate. Many statews have minimum ages for various offices for the same reason.\nI wouldn't be comfortable with a 25 yr old president.

Section One of Article II of the U.S. Constitution establishes the requirements one must meet in order to become President. The president must be a natural-born citizen of the United States (or a citizen of the United States at the time the U.S. Constitution was adopted), be at least 35 years old, and have been a resident of the United States for 14 years.\n\nThe natural-born citizenship requirement has been the subject of controversy recently. Some commentators argue that the clause should be repealed because it excludes qualified people based on so-called "technicalities", and fails to appreciate the contributions made by immigrants to American society. Supporters counter that the requirement protects the United States from foreign interference — another country could send an emigrant to the United States and through subterfuge get them elected. Many prominent public officials are barred from the presidency because they are not natural-born citizens (for example, Secretaries of State Henry Kissinger and Madeleine Albright, and Governors Arnold Schwarzenegger of California and Jennifer Granholm of Michigan), as well as other well-known persons born in other countries who have done great service for the United States (Bob Hope). Constitutional amendments are occasionally proposed to remove or modify this requirement, but none has been successful.\n\nThe only time recently that the natural-born citizenship requirement has been implicated in regard to a presidential candidate was in 1968. That year, Michigan Governor George W. Romney was a candidate for the Republican nomination for president. Romney had been born in Chihuahua, Mexico to American parents. However, Romney's campaign fizzled and the question was never seriously discussed.
