You're asking if George Bush can serve as President again, but you posted the question to the George W. Bush category.
George Bush (George H. W. Bush) was elected President only once, so he's free to run again. The only thing that may stop him is the fact that he's 87 years old.
George W. Bush was elected twice, so according to the 22nd Amendment to the U. S. Constitution he may not be elected President again.
Regarding whether George W. Bush can serve again as President... The 22nd Amendment only prohibits a person from being elected President more than twice, which seems to leave the door open for one of the other ways of becoming President besides the Presidential election. Those that debate this fact point out that in order to run for Vice President you have to be qualified to be President. However, if he were Speaker of the House when both the President and the Vice President died, I believe he would be qualified to assume the Presidency.
Of course, this is a huge hypothetical; I seriously doubt Mr. Bush as any intention of running for Congress.

∙ 12y agoGeorge W. Bush can not run for President as he was elected to two terms, (2000 and 2004), the maximum number a President can serve (a law was passed after FDR was elected to four terms as President limiting the President to two terms in office). George H.W. Bush can run for President again as he only served one term as President, (1988 to 1992), but, he is too old, was easily defeated by Bill Clinton in 1992, and he will Never run again for President. Jeb Bush can run for President if he wants to.

∙ 12y agoNO- George W. Bush is not eligible since he has already served two terms. His father is too old to stand the rigors of another campaign even if he wanted to give it a try.
