How is it that here in the US there is NO law against anyone running for the highest office in the land even if that person has a criminal conviction, and if elected serving from prison? #USPolitics

It's because such a law would be undemocratic.

If voters decide to vote for such a person, then that's how the election has worked out, and it would be problematic to overrule the democratic vote because the government doesn't accept its outcome.
