Answer 1

One does not need any qualification to be a politician. politics not specifically in the US context is used to earn millions Even billions.

Actually in many countries it called '' The Business of Politics and not the Service of Politics''

One does not need any specific qualification.He needs to an actor,a lawyer,a intelligent liar,a forceful speaker  etc.

Actually a young father takes his son with him and he sees a few cops taking an person .

The son asks who is being taken with handcuffs .The father replies he is a Thief a pickpocket.

The a person is taken in a police van .The father tells his son he is murderer.

Then the son points to a convey of cars and large number of cops  and tells the Father a terrorist is being taken the Father shakes his head and says he is a Minister.

On a series Politics is  a place to stay in the USA.Being a lawyer is also a good one.But would suggest being a lawyer and then they to enter politics if you want.

Both would earn you good money in the USA.But education is a selfish thing you cannot give it to anyone and no one can rob you.

Do qualify in the Law and then they politics.

Good Luck

Answer 2

First and foremost take classes in English. You need help there.

Study political science, public speaking, composition,  American history, literature, the sciences, ethics. Science is important since you may want to specialize in a specific type of law such as mining law, aviation law, maritime law, malpractice law, medical or forensic law.

All are important but a good lawyer, as opposed to the great many poor and average lawyers around, must have an excellent command of our language. Without it you can be, at best, mediocre.

Answer 3

Most politicians are lawyers, although McCain is not. You can make more money as a soulless lawyer than as a politician. Frankly, we need fewer lawyers and politicians in this country, and more entrepreneurs and scientists.  

Answer 4

you should be taking classes in history... politics and government (if they're available)  In college there are many philosophy.. economics... and political science courses that will help

an undergad degree in politicalm science... prelaw... or any related program will prepare for you law school

as for wealth.... if you succeed.. do well in school and on law exams... get in a good firm... you can be wealthy.  

a job in politics is harder to make wealth of.  local representatives do not earn near 150000 a year....law is a safer route to wealth than politics

Answer 5

Wealthy? Not according to McCain you aint!!
