The President has the authority to nominate anyone he (or she) feels would be an asset to the Court. Neither the US Constitution nor federal law list any qualifications or requirements for serving on the bench.

Article I of the US Constitution states that the House has sole power of impeachment, or accusation. "impeachment" means to accuse, not to remove from office. Officials named in Article II Section 4 as vulnerable to impeachment: * The President * The Vice President * All Civil Officers of the United States While it is unclear what is meant by Civil Officers, Congress defines it as anyone appointed by the President. Under this definition, they may also impeach: * Federal Judges * Cabinet Members
If you are asking if you (or anyone) can become president, the answer is yes-- but there are several rules that are in the Constitution, and they apply only to the president: he (or she) must be American-born, and at least 35 years old. If you were not born in the United States, you may still be a governor or a senator or a representative, but you may not be the president.
