Assuming you meet the qualifications in the Constitution (born American, 35 or older, etc.) you get your name out there and convince people to vote for you.  \n\nRealistically, you have to join one of the two parties and convince them to nominate you, and then convince everyone to pick you.  Until the electoral college is abolished, it would take a miracle to be elected if you aren't a Democrat or Republican.\n\nIf you are serious, run for mayor, city council or state legislature something to get the experience you would need to run the country.

Typically speaking-- executive abilities, leadership abilities, and popularity.\n\nYou need someone who knows the people/understands them (often this means they're from their state, but not always).\n\nNeed someone who has experience in managing, aka being an executive (some legislators make the absolute worst Governors).\n\nNeed someone who is liked enough to be able to craft an agenda for the people and an agenda that can get passed.\n\nA good example is Governor Robert Ehrlich in Maryland.  Maryland is a 2:1 Democrat to Republican state, but as a popular moderate legislator, he succeeded in becoming Governor in 2002.

Speaker of the House. The position of Speaker is established in the U.S. Constitution and is the most senior officer of the House of Representatives (and the third most senior official in the entire federal government.) Institutionally, the Speaker holds broad-ranging powers and presides over debate in the House, makes rulings on points of order, has priority right of recognition on the floor, and sets the agenda by deciding what and when legislation comes before the House. In addition, the Speaker appoints task forces and commissions and oversees the management of support functions to the House. Finally, by modern practice, the Speaker serves as the primary spokesperson for his congressional party.\nSee also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speaker_of_the_United_States_House_of_Representatives\n\nHouse Majority Leader.
