10. There are NO requirements to be president....
You don't have to have a college degree... You don't have to be a elected official. Shit, you don't have to know the first damned thing about politics.

You do have to be born in the country, and what... 35 years old.

That's it. There is something to be said for experience, yes, but what about what about judgment? What about the right kind of experience? You can't change DC if you are a DC insider.

I applaud the fact that you went through and put this together, but honestly, if it was about experience, it would be in the constitution.
