Should Military service be a requirement to become President of the United States?

Recently on Facebook, a pic has been going around asking that same question. So I decided to look up how many Presidents have served in the US military. And this is what I found. 12 out of 44 Presidents have not served in the US Military. And one of them bribed someone else to take his place. And no, it was not President Clinton. You will shocked with him. But this president was from Ohio. There's your clue. And here is the list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Presidents_of_the_United_States_by_military_service

But do you all think? Should it be a requirement that the President have served in the US Military?

Join nearly 2 million former and current members of the US military, just like you.
