Best Answer

Anyone who has been a U.S. citizen since birth, is at least 35 years old and has actually lived in the U.S. at least 14 years can be elected. This includes governors, lawyers, and the unemployed. Of course, a governor who had previously served two terms as president would not be eligible.
