As a group one-term presidents are not so successful which is why they were one-term presidents. Polk refused to run for a second term and he was probably the most successful one-termer. Taft would very probably have won a second term if Theodore Roosevelt had supported him instead of breaking with with his party and running as an independent against him.
American presidents who are re-elected are required to repeat the oath of office.
The only U.S. president who was never elected as president or vice president is Gerald Ford. He was a Congressman who was appointed to office. He ran for a second term, but lost to Jimmy Carter.
Five Republicans served exactly one full term Benjamin Harrison, William Howard Taft, Herbert Hoover, and George H. W. Bush ran for a second term and lost. than one term. Hayes did not run for a second term by his own choice. Ford served less than one term as did Garfield, Harding, Arthur and Andrew Johnson. Ford tried for a full term but lost. Garfield and Harding died during their first term. Arthur and Andrew Johnson were not nominated for a second term.
