Do you need to be 'battle tested" to be president?
What battle test do Senators go through?
What battle test did Congressmen go through?
Do all governors have a battle test moment?
Are there other indicators of how one would do inappropriate battle test scenario other than a crisis in a large public office?
Would working in intelligence in an active war zone count?
Ironically, no President of the last 26 years has ever been to an actual battle. Mayor Pete has.
My point is, the arbitrary bar of needing to hold a large high level office to be President is arbitrary and while it can be an asset for those running. It shouldn't be a liability.
