Sorry to burst your bubble but POTUS is a management position. You oversee millions of jobs as the head of the Executive branch.
It is a job that the vast majority do not have the skills or temperament to manage with any degree of competence. The plantation owner who oversaw the hundreds of jobs/slaves of the past might have been able to be the head of a smaller and weaker government but the modern farmer isn't going to have skills that transfer to POTUS.
The reason why it's finance, politicians, and lawyers that end up in the job is those are the fields whose skills actually do transfer.
POTUS isn't an entry level job. You should have governmental experience and a history of managing large organizations.
