The 22nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1951, limits the office of the President of the United States to two terms (can be non-consecutive). The office of the Vice President, however, is not term-limited.
Prior to the 22nd Amendment, there was no term limit, but most Presidents followed a precedent set by George Washington to serve only two terms. The only President in U.S. history to serve more than 2 terms was Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR), who died suddenly only months into his 4th term. The only U.S. President to serve two non-consecutive terms was Grover Cleveland, who is considered our 22nd and 24th President.
A constitutional amendment would be required to change the Presidential term limit in the future.

∙ 14y agoThe US Constitution prohibits a President from being elected more than twice. This is not true. If a president dies with two or less years in his term, the vp can take over for those two years and be elected for two more terms. The most amount of years anyone can be president is 10 years.
