Andrew Johnson served less than 1 term in office, as US President. Johnson was never elected to office as President; the term he served, was the balance of President Lincoln's term, when he became President after President Lincoln was assassinated.
President Johnson impeached during his 1 term as President, and was the first US President to be impeached. There were two attempts to impeach him, the second attempt was successful, and though he was impeached, he was not removed from office. (The Senate did not successfully vote to confirm the impeachment charges.)
Johnson wanted to run for a second term as President but was not nominated by the Democratic party for President.
