Could an everyday person run for President?

The last supposedly ordinary person to become President was Harry Truman... and he proves to have been extraordinary. He was smart enough to make few mistakes,  and that is often the difference now between being a bare graduate of high school and a PhD.

CAN RUN... but almost always lacks the funds, staff, and name recognition.

Start with the city council of a small town or a commissioner of a rural township in your twenties... and maybe, just maybe, one might get through the conventional routes to the Presidency that lead to the US Senate or the Governorship of a state..
