What are the educational requirements to be President?
The Constituation doesn't state any educational requirements to become President of the United States of America. So in other words, as long as you meet the requisistes of being a natural born citizen, being more than 35 years of age, and have lived for at least 14 years in American Soil you can possibly become president of the U.S.A. The presidential debates often let a candidate display his knowledge and/or his ignorance and interviewers often try to trip up a candidate. The papers make a big thing of any mistakes of fact made by a candidate.

George Washington in his first address had a sentence that was 87 words long "On the one hand, I was summoned by my country, whose voice I can never hear but with veneration and love, from a retreat which I had chosen with the fondest predilection, and, in my flattering hopes, with an immutable decision, as the asylum of my declining years-a retreat which was rendered every day more necessary as well as more dear to me by the addition of habit to inclination, and of frequent interruptions in my health to the gradual waste committed on it by time."

"Great power comes with great responsibility."
Despite what Marvel and the movies would have us believe, this powerful and epic quote does not come from a Hollywood script writing team but from the innovative and ardent literary sanctuary from the 19th century France.
The credit has been given to Stan Lee, the writer of Spiderman, Franklin D. Roosevelt and even Winston Churchill at diverse stages; however, the first literary record of this quote can be attributed to Francois-Marie Arouet aka Voltaire who was alarmed by the poor and deprived who suffered around him by the appalling abuse of authority and privileged - the powerful ones. Therefore, the power vested among the officers of different organizations is likewise having a requirement in your major subject that you need to comply in order to pass. "Dalawa kasi siya, President

Such a basic tenet is easy to find among the great and moderate thinkers all the way back to the bronze age. I'd like to put a credit in for Jesus Christ "To those who much is given much is required" Luke 12:48 circa 30 AD.
