There were thirteen who served for two full terms, namely

1. George Washington

2. Thomas Jefferson

3. James Madison

4. James Monroe

5. Andrew Jackson

6. Ulysses S. Grant

10. Dwight Eisenhower

11. Ronald Reagan

12. Bill Clinton

13. George W. Bush.

Note: all of the above except Cleveland served their terms consecutively. Cleveland was the only President to leave office and then return later..

1. Abraham Lincoln (assassinated at the beginning of his second term).

2. William McKinley (assassinated at the beginning of his second term).

3. Richard Nixon (resigned during his second term).

There were also four presidents who were elected to a second term, but they hadn't been elected to the first (they didn't serve a full first term).

1. Theodore Roosevelt (completed McKinley's second term and was elected to one term of his own).

2. Calvin Coolidge (completed Warren Harding's term and was elected to one term of his own).

3. Harry Truman (completed FDR's fourth term and was elected to one term of his own).

4. Lyndon B. Johnson (completed Kennedy's term and was elected to one term of his own).

There are only 16. Teddy Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge, Harry Truman, and LBJ don't count as they were only elected once after serving the remainder of their deceased predecessors.

Answer 3

16 Presidents were actually elected to two terms. Another four finished out the terms of other Presidents and then as the incumbent were elected to another term of their own.

The 16 were Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jackson, Lincoln, Grant, Cleveland,McKinley, Wilson, franklin Rooseveltm Eisenhower, Nixon, Reagan, Clinton and George W. Bush.

Theodore Roosevelt, Coolidge, Lyndon Johnson and Truman all finished out the terms of other Presidents, and then were re- elected .

(One president (Franklin Roosevelt) was elected to a 3rd and 4th term but shortly died after being elected to that 4th term. Three presidents that were elected to a second term did not finish the 2nd term (Lincoln and McKinley were assassinated and Nixon resigned from office))
