Based upon Amendment Twenty-Two of the Constitution, no person can be elected to the office of President more than twice or serve more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President. Therefore, the total length of time that any person could serve as President is TEN years.

Truman could have served two full terms as president, in addition to the time he was president for FDR who died in office. Lyndon B. Johnson could serve two full terms in addition to the time he was president after John F. Kennedy was killed (by Lee H. Oswald acting alone). Gerald R. Ford could have served two full terms as president in addition to the time he was president after Richard M. Nixon resigned.

What might be the consequence if the president could fire the vice president?
They can't but, if the president could fire the vice president, this could mean that the person who is the vice president was not the person citizens voted for in the presidential elections. First, that could cause anger amongst people who would feel cheated/betrayed. Secondly, the president could carefully select who they wanted to be vice president so that the vice president agrees with everything the president says, giving more power to the president (turning the vice president into a 'puppet leader').
Could a president be called emperor if they were president of an empire?
If the person is the president of a corporation which is called an industrial empire, he would probably not like to be called an emperor. If the person is a dictator who made himself emperor as well as president, I suppose you could call him an emperor. Emperor is usually a title applied to king-like figures. President usually indicates an elected leader. The two titles are contradictory.
How many can the presidents have terms for?
A President can serve no more than two terms. In the event of someone becoming President during a term (if the President dies, is impeached and removed, etc.), that counts as one of the two terms if the new President serves at least two years. This means the absolute longest amount of time anyone could serve as President is nine years, 364 days.
Is there any condition where a sitting president could extend his term of office beyond the maximum two terms as president?
Yes. If a person becomes president following the death or incapacity of his/her predecessor, and if the person serves less than one half of the predecessor's term, then that person can run for two terms on his/her own. So a person could in theory serve as president for up to 10 years minus one day. If more than half of the predecessor's term is filled by the person, then that person may have only one additional term.

The longest a usual president can run for is 8 Years or 2 terms in office. However if he is a vice president and is needed to fill the seat of the president he could possibly serve a maximum of 10 years or 2 years 1/2 term plus his two elected terms.
