The requirements to become president are: 35 years old, and a natural born citizen of the United States and have maintained a residence for 14 years within the US. Education or military service are not required to be president. The residence clause allows for people to serve in the military or business outside the US and still at some point run for office. Most people really do not gain the political backing or political experience until they are 50 or 60 years old.
