Should prior military service be a prereq 4 Prez?
Personally I feel it should. As commander in chief it should be a given that some form of active duty (perhaps reserves) have been served by any candidate.
This doesn’t change the other considerations that make them marketable (successful entrepreneur, degreed, and other factors)
Someone that has had a successful position of leadership; such as a Senator, or governor, etc may have strong leadership qualities, but lack the element that area of the executive branch has control of. Its true checks and balances may take of accountability slack; but can’t make up for experienced insight. This obviously is my humble opinion; I’m curious how others feel.
