The 22nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1951, limits the office of the President of the United States to two terms (can be non-consecutive). The office of the Vice President, however, is not term-limited.

Prior to the 22nd Amendment, there was no term limit, but most Presidents followed a precedent set by George Washington to serve only two terms. The only President in U.S. history to serve more than 2 terms was Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR), who died suddenly only months into his 4th term. The only U.S. President to serve two non-consecutive terms was Grover Cleveland, who is considered our 22nd and 24th President.

A constitutional amendment would be required to change the Presidential term limit in the future.
