A person can be elected to two full 4-year terms if they have completed a deceased president's term. They must have completed less than two years of the deceased president's term, or else it is considered a full term. This way, no person may be President of the United States for more than 10 years.

John Tyler, Fillmore, Andrew Johnson, and Chester Arthur were vice-presidents who moved up to president when the president died. In those days, a vacant vice-presidency was not filled until the next presidential election, so these men had no vice-president and were not re-elected as president so they never had a vice-president. ( Theodore Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge ,Harry Truman and Lyndon Johnson also moved up to president from vice-president and so lacked a vice-president for their first term,but all were elected to a second term and had a vice-president then. )Nowaday there is a process for getting a new vice-president if the President dies.
