We elect one president once every four years. I'm just not that worried about crime waves touched off by people whose escape plan is getting elected to the presidency.
I am not worried about local muggers running for office. What I am worried about is the 'Julius Caesar scenario': laws stop mattering in politics because holding office renders one (effectively or de jure) immune to prosecution.

In the consular elections of 60BC, Caesar engaged in extensive bribery and corruption because he knew that once elected, he would be immune from prosecution in his consular year (consuls, by virtue of holding 'imperium' could not be prosecuted).

Then, during his consulship, he did quite a bit more blatantly illegal action, because he had already arranged to be given a position with imperium the following year (a proconsular command in Gaul).
