Best Answer

Franklin Roosevelt was the only president to serve or run for more than 2 terms. He died before he completed his fourth term. George Washington probably could have served for as many terms as he wished, but he refused to serve a third term and that set a precedent which everybody honored until FDR broke it. Now there is a constitutional amendment that disallows a third term.
