1.Only native-born U.S. citizens (or those born abroad, but only to parents who were both citizens of the U.S.) may be President of the United States

2.One must also be at least 35 years of age to be president

3. Finally, one must live in the United States for at least 14 years to be president, in addition to being a natural-born citizen. The Constitution is vague on this point. For example, it does not make clear whether those 14 years need to be consecutive or what the precise definition of residency is. So far, however, this requirement has not been challenged.
