You have to have financial security to run for President - after all, you're often campaigining for two years or more -- and a regular joe who works a 9 to 5 might not have put away enough savings to make that committment. A truly poor person would never make it. The presidency is for the wealthy and well-connected.

I think a non-Christian, especially if he is Jewish, could be elected president. Second to that would be a woman. Of course, if Alma Powell ever got off Colin's back and he decided to run, then I think he would stand an excellent chance at the office.
