Which amendment determined that a person could be president for only two terms?
Amendment 22 - Presidential Term Limits. Ratified 2/27/1951.1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.
What part of the constitution provides that no person shall be elected to the office of president more than twice?
The 22nd Amendment
Is the President allowed 2.5 terms?
The Twenty-Second Amendment limits Presidential terms of office; the relevant portion reads as follows: No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. So the answer is yes; a person may serve two and a half terms as President, provided they entered the office by completing the someone else's term. The interpretation of this amendment (and its interaction with the Twelfth Amendment, which sets qualifications for the Vice Presidency) is unclear in a situation where a twice-elected President later seeks election to the Vice Presidency; also, it is unclear if the Speaker of the House or other officer could succeed to the Presidency if they had twice been elected President. However, such situations seem unlikely to arise.
Can a former president serve as vice president?
The original constitution had no requirements for the office of vice president. However, the 12th Amendment, ratified in 1804, said that, "no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States."So that would mean that a vice president would have to meet the requirements to be president laid out in Article II of the Constitution. Principally, the person would have to be born in the United States, be at least 35 years of age and have been a resident of this country for the preceding 14 years. So far, so good. Maybe a former president, like Bill Clinton, could serve as vice president.However, the 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, states:22nd Amendment: No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of President more than once.So this sets up the conundrum. The 22nd Amendment says that Clinton can clearly not "be elected" to the presidency. And the 12th Amendment says that no one can become vice president if they are "ineligible to the office of the presidency."Clinton has been elected to the presidency twice. So he can no longer be "elected" to the presidency, according to the language of the 22nd Amendment. Does that mean he is "constitutionally ineligible" to serve as president, to use the language of the 12th Amendment? If so, he could not serve as vice president. But finding out would certainly make for an interesting Supreme Court case.
Which Amendment to the Constitution places a limit on the length of time a president may serve?
The 22nd Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified on February 27, 1951, specifies Presidential term limit restrictions, wherein "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once."
Can a past president of the US be vice president?
The 22nd Amendment states that "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of President more than once." With that said, it is possible, but would most likely not happen. Yes, but only if the former president "has time left." Presidents have term limits and if a former president has reached his/her limit then he/she cannot be VP because he/she would not be able to assume the office of president without violating the 22nd amendment.
What amendment to the US Constitution limits the number of terms a US President can serve?
The 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, which was ratified in 1947, limitsa president to two elected terms. The amendment also prohibits a person from running for reelection more than once if he or she has already served more than two years of a term to which someone else had been elected. The Constitution of the United States specifies a four-year presidential term. It originally says nothing about how many terms a president could serve.The 22nd Amendment
What man was elected twice as US Vice-President and twice as US President?
Richard Nixon.
If a president has served 2 terms can that president serve another 2 terms if a different president has served at least one term between the original 2 terms?
No. Under the 22nd Amendment (ratified in 1951), an individual may not be elected to the Presidency once he has been elected twice (or only once if he served more than two years after succeeding another President). The possibility that a former President could be elected or appointed to some other office, and succeed to the Presidency despite the amendment, has never occurred and is the subject of constitutional debate.
Can a president twice or thrice elected?
Twice yeah, thrice nay.
