The first, and only president elected for a third term was Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1940 due to some concerns during WWII. He was also elected in 1947 for a fourth term, but died only months into his fourth term.

Franklin D. Roosevelt broke the tradition of seeking no more then two terms by seeking and winning a third term in 1940. No other president ever ran for a third term and it is now illegal to do so. He ran again in 1944.
