The US president serves for four years, after which he can stand for re-election one time. The term of a prime minister may depend on the country, but the usual case for the prime minister to serve as long as his government stays in power and not for any fixed term.

How long can a prime minister stay in office in Quebec?

The French Prime Minister has no defined length for his stay in office. The President is elected for five years and picks the Prime Minister within the parliamentary majority. The Prime Minister has to answer to parliament which can ask for him to be removed. In French politics, it is common for the Prime Minister to protect the popularity of the president by taking responsibility of unpopular policies, and afterwards offer his resignation to the President. (The office of Prime Minister is often compared to that of a lightning rod.) Some Prime ministers stayed very few months in offices, others for many years.
