Actually, this may be an old question that reappeared, because the president did want to go for a second term. He ran for re-election and in November of 2012, he won a second term. If you meant to ask whether he wants a 3rd term, he is not allowed to do that. No president can run for a third consecutive term, because the 22nd amendment, which went into effect in 1951, says no president may serve more than two consecutive terms. So this will be the last term for Barack Obama as president.
