He has already served more than two years; he was elected in 2008, and he has served nearly four years; in January 2013, he will begin to serve for another four years. I think you are asking if he will serve more than two "terms"-- but he cannot. Presidents are not allowed to serve for more than two terms, according to the 26th amendment to the Constitution.
The President is elected for a term of 4 years. As of January 20, 2013, Mr. Obama will have officially completed his 4th year in office. Since he was re-elected for a second time, the law allows him to serve another four-year term in office. But he is not allowed to serve more than eight years.
A president serves four years, and if he is re-elected, he may serve another four years. Mr. Obama was elected in 2008, and re-elected in 2012. Under the constitution, a president may not serve more than that, so when he term officially ends in January of 2017, he will no longer be president, having served eight years.
More than 3 years.
The answer to that question is found in the twenty second amendment of the constitution. The president can serve for more than four years, however the president can not serve more than ten years. They can serve two terms (four years each). I can not remember how they can get the other two years, but they can.The term of the president is only four years. I do not know where you got your information from, but it is completely false.

He cannot. By constitutional amendment, no president may serve more than two terms.
Obama never lived in Russia or visited it for more than a few days.
can serve up to 8 years. they serve one term for four years and then there is another election. if they are elected again, they are there for another four years. they can't serve more than 8 years, though.

No. After years of tradition where Presidents served no more than 2 terms, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was the only President to serve more than 2. He was in the beginning of his 4th term (his third re-election) when he died. In 1947, the 22nd Amendment was passed which limited Presidents to 2 terms. It was ratified by the states in 1951.
