Let’s keep those goalposts where they are for a little longer: are you still saying that because any given subset of people haven’t been in past presidential elections, they shouldn’t run for president? I think it’s important to grasp what that does to the pool of people that are considered suitable for the presidency.
You didn’t ask me the question, but it’s not a useful question to ask.
I’m trying to help you understand the flaw in your reasoning; to see that this exact reason would have only straight white Christian male landowners ever be president. I am fairly confident that’s not what you want, so I’m hoping you’ll be open to acknowledging the flaw in what you’re implying.

You responded directly after that question and still you are dodging it.
There’s nothing to dodge; the answer is obvious. It’s exactly why I asked about women in the same framing.
I’m beginning to think you’re not interested in understanding your mistake.
I’m just pointing out that in the sixty presidential elections so far leftists have never gotten the presidency or even second place.
Yes, I am well aware of what you are saying.
Maybe I should try a different angle: So what? What should I do with this information?
I’d say you can just jump in an argue for a while but you’ve already done that.
