People become President of the US by running in an election (which is held every four years) and winning. But before they get to be president, they usually have a career in politics, in which they start from a lesser position. They first might get elected to be mayor of a city, then a governor of a state, or a senator or a representative in congress. In modern times, it is highly unusual for someone to come out of nowhere and be elected president.
