Numerous US presidents were governors first, perhaps representing the faith of the people in the office of governor. If a person can successfully lead a state in the US, then they may also be able to lead the country, since the state is a somewhat miniaturized version of the country. Several other presidents were governors first and then held many different political offices, including senate and house representative positions, and/or serving in the vice presidency.
