How to become an ambasstor?

Question

im a IR major at Florida State University, i was jsut curious to know what steps would oe have to follow to become an ambasstor..(i know its an appointed job, but do you have to hold office in congress first )

Answer 1

Most ambassadors are politicians or individuals who have really excelled in helping their political parties. The top party leadership gets the President (if he's a member of their party)to appoint someone to a country where that individual will not only benefit the U.S.,but also the party as well. Perhaps this person speaks that language and knows the customs of that nation as well.

Answer 2

first step: become a bassatard.

step two: an S.O.B. (Serious Office Bassatard)

so on and so forth.
