Step1
Be at least 35 years old and a citizen born in the
United States, Guam, Puerto Rico or the U.S. Virgin
Islands (or to American parents abroad). You also need
to have been a U.S. resident for at least 14 years.
Step2
Hold a law degree. Out of 43 presidents, 25 have been
lawyers. It also helps to have government service on
your re'sume'-- 17 governors, 15 senators
and 19 members of the House of Representatives have
become president.
Step3
Start raising money--lots of it. You've got a
long way to go. The Bush-Cheney ticket, for example,
spent $186 million campaigning in 2000. See 381 Plan a
Fund-Raising Event.
Step4
Gather a bright, devoted and tireless campaign staff,
including strategists, spokespeople and
speechwriters.
Step5
Campaign like crazy before and during your
party's primaries and caucuses. They begin in
January of each election year.
Step6
Name your running mate. When you look at potential
candidates for vice president, take into consideration
the voting block he or she is supported by and can
help deliver (the South, the labor vote, women, senior
citizens, military veterans). If your experience is
weak in certain areas, your running mate can
strengthen it with his our her own background. Bottom
line: Pick someone who would be a good president
should you die or otherwise leave office. See 349 Plan
a Funeral According to Custom.
Step7
Win the majority of delegates who will vote at your
party's national convention. If you don't
have more than half in your camp going into the
convention, work on the unpledged delegates. These
include high-ranking party members, governors and
congressional representatives.
Step8
Celebrate your convention victory, and campaign like
crazy all over the country until elections in
November.
Step9
Win a majority of the electoral college, which
isn't the same thing as the popular vote. There
are 538 electoral votes, and you need 270 of them to
become president.
Step10
Practice reciting the oath for the inaugural ceremony
on January 20: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm)
that I will faithfully execute the office of president
of the United States, and will to the best of my
ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution
of the United States."
