No. The US Constitution limits a president to serving ten years in office, and they cannot run for election if they cannot fulfill the term within that ten years. That means a President who is elected to serve two full terms is not eligible to run again, even if the terms are not consecutive. If a Vice President ascends to the Presidency due to the death or resignation of a President, however, they could run for election and serve two additional terms as long as they do not exceed the ten year limit. Lyndon Johnson, for instance, finished the term JFK was elected to in 1960, then ran for re-election in 1964. He was eligible, but declined to run again in 1968. Gerald Ford would have been eligible to run again in 1980 had he won in 1976 as well.
Yes, if the president dies the VP serves out the rest of the president's terms.
The 22nd Amendment changed the Constitution to impose that limitation.
When Roosevelt died in office Truman became president and served the rest of his term and one of his own. Roosevelt served 4 terms and is the reason there is a term limit on the president.
US presidents can be elected to no more than two terms of four years each. They can not serve for more than 10 years and so can not be elected for a second term if they have already served more than 2 years of another president's term. This limit is set by the 22nd amendment to the Constitution which was ratified March 27, 1951. Before that date, there were no limits on how many times a president might be re-elected.
Barack Obama was sworn in as President on January 20, 2009 and served the rest of the year. He expects to serve until January 20,2017.
George Washington. He easily could have remained president for the rest of his life, but he believed that no one should stay in power for too long.
Yes, motion and rest are relative terms because an object can be considered in motion or at rest depending on the observer's frame of reference. An object at rest in one frame of reference may appear to be in motion in another frame of reference.
He is not supposed to be able to do that. What the president can or cannot do and what he can get away with are different questions as you can see by reading the newspapers.
Under the 22nd Amendment, if a Vice-President succeeds to the Presidency through death, resignation etc, and serves more than two years of his predecessor's term then he may be elected only once in his own right, for a total of between six and eight years, depending how much unexpired term was served. If, OTOH, he serves less than two years, he may be elected twice like any other President. Thus if President Bush had died on Jan 21, 2007, President Cheney could in theory go on to two elected terms thereafter, and serve a total of ten years (less one day).
Rest and motion are relative terms, meaning they are defined in relation to a particular frame of reference. An object at rest in one frame of reference may be in motion in another frame. This concept is a key aspect of Einstein's theory of relativity.
Rest and motion are relative terms, meaning that whether an object is considered at rest or in motion depends on the frame of reference being used to observe it. In one frame of reference, an object may be at rest, while in another frame of reference it may be in motion. So, rather than being opposite terms, they are actually interrelated.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt was the US President from March 4, 1933 to his death on April 12, 1945. His Vice President, Harry S Truman, was President for the remainder of 1945, and left office on January 20, 1953.
