It is a Constitutional requirement that a President of the United States be a minimum of 35 years of age. Those who drafted the Constitution of the United States felt that a President should have a few years of experience to hold the office.

Well, firstly, a determined age would have to be chosen, and 35 years old is an age which suggests youth and a certain maturity to be a president.
A person has to be 35 years old to be president of the U. S. because it is set forth in the U. S. Constitution as a qualification for becoming president.
