The ruling that prevents a king or any hereditary monarch from ruling the United States is primarily established in the U.S. Constitution. Specifically, "Article I, Section 9, Clause 8", known as the "Titles of Nobility Clause," states that no person holding any office of profit or trust under the United States shall, without the consent of Congress, accept any present, emolument, office, or title of any kind from any king, prince, or foreign state.
Additionally, the Constitution establishes a republican form of government, which is characterized by elected representatives and an elected leader (the President), rather than a monarchy. The principles of democracy and the rule of law are foundational to the U.S. political system, ensuring that power is derived from the consent of the governed rather than inherited through royal lineage.
Furthermore, the 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, limits the President to two terms in office, reinforcing the idea that leadership in the U.S. is not a lifelong or hereditary position.
