No. You should only capitalize proper nouns so presidential is not capitalized. But if you are talking about the President as in "The President refused to comment" then it should be capitalized. However, if you are talking about presidents generically as in "no one is really sure who was the first president to...." then do not capitalize.

When you use the word president as a common word it is not capitalized, as for any president of any organization. It is capitalized when used with a person's name as a title (e.g. President Jones of a bank).

For the President of the United States, it is capitalized in some styles, as it would be whenever it is used to mean the President while omitting his surname. It is not capitalized when used for the office (e.g. he is running for president).

It depends on the context. If you are referring to a certain president like saying "President Obama" or "President Lincoln", then yes. However, if you are just referring to "the president" then no.

No. It's not necessary. Capitalize it when it forms part ot the proper noun.

Example:

The Presidential Security Group

When it begins a sentence and when it is part of a title. For instance, President Obama is capitalised as it is part of his title.
