I suggest we force politicians and their children to enlist. If you want war so bad, lead the charge.

    There's a reason most of the presidents we consider the best were former military. They have that experience. They also tended to avoid conflicts whenever possible. It's not a coincidence.

    I thought you had to be ex-military in order to be considered fit to run for president?

    Not at all. Trump famously got a bullshit diagnosis of bone spurs to dodge the draft.

    The U.S. Constitution states that the president must:

    1. Be a natural-born citizen of the United States.
    2. Be at least 35 years old.
    3. Have been a resident of the United States for 14 years.

    Beyond that, it's just what the people want to consider required qualifications.
