Officially there are no requirements.  The President can nominate anyone except a Congressman, anyone at all, even you.  Then the Senate has to confirm the nomination.  That is where politics enters.  If they do not feel you arew qualified, you will not be confirmed.  Generally, secretaries are not military personnel, but rather civilians, usually businessmen accustomed to management.  Perhaps even from various defense industries.  Often nominations are politicians the party wishes to keep friendly.

One word... strategery. \nBut seriously, some people would rather not be sheep - mindlessly following whoever is leading.  Education and credentials do not necessarily indicate intelligence.  Why don't I become president? I would rather do something that will have a positive effect on the future, like teach. As opposed to sending innocent men and women to other countries to die so that I can increase my wealth via the oil industry.

In order to be elected President you must br at least 35 years old and be a citizen born in America. The 2 major political parties Democrats and Republicans hold a convention and nominate their choice for President. This is done by having "Primary" elections where the people vote and whom ever has the most votes gets the delegates (people who represent a State at Conventions)Each State has a number of delegates, the number depends on the states population. So after the promary the delegates from each state meet for a nominating convention. The person that has the most delegates will repersent that party in the general election. He or she chooses a running mate who will become Vice President. Meanwhile their is a group called the electorial college. Each State has a number of electorial college votes. When we vote for President we are really voting for the electorial college members...Example: Lets say Arizona has 6 electorial college votes then whomever wins the election gets those votes. Soon after the election the electorial college meets and tallys up the electorial college votes and the winner is elected President.\n\nConfusing?? It can be and I hope this helps

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.

Right now our laws do not allow a naturalized citizen to become president.  However you can become any other elected official.  Some senators and governors are immigrants and have emmense power and influence within the government.\n\nGood luck on your citizenship process and don't give up.  It took my friend 10 years before he finally became a citizen.  But it is worth it,  you have better job opportunities and more compreshensive rights as a citizen.
