First, one must qualify for the office. This means being a native-born (or born on American territory) United States citizen, at least thirty-five years old, who has lived in the US for the last fourteen years. Next, one must win enough electoral votes to become President-elect. (The number of electoral votes varies from state to state, and is the same as the number of Representatives from those states. If you win the popular vote in a state, you win their electoral votes.) Once this is done, one must take the Oath of Office (traditionally with one hand on a Bible, but this is not a legal requirement), which goes: "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." "Affirm" was built into the Oath, because some people do not believe in swearing oaths, including many Christians. (Jesus in the New Testament advised against swearing to anything: "Let your yes mean yes, and your no mean no.")

Well first start getting into debates. Debates are very important in many ways to become president, and to get your point across. Be a good speaker, diction is key and volume. Try to be charismatic, you want to bring people in. Create arguments, bring up the issues. Figure a way to solve those issues, and be organized. That's what I got.
