he didnt run for president
Jefferson ran for president in 1801-1805
Thomas Jefferson left the office of Vice President to take the office of President. So he was more stepping up than stepping down.
He didn't run for president. He was appointed President of the C.S.A when the South seceded from the Union.
President Thomas Jefferson chose not to run for a third term in office due to his belief in the importance of limiting the power of the executive branch and preventing the establishment of a monarchy. Additionally, Jefferson wanted to set a precedent for future presidents to voluntarily step down after serving two terms, in order to uphold the principles of democracy and prevent the consolidation of power in the hands of one individual. Jefferson's decision to retire after two terms ultimately helped solidify the tradition of the two-term limit for presidents, which was later codified into law with the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution.
only if that president didnt serve his 2 terms already he can work one term and then after awhile run for another term
Thomas Jefferson
John Adams's rivalry against Thomas Jefferson was what led him to run for president
No. His aides have announced that Mitt Romney will not run for president for the third time in 2016.
