Why do US presidents serve four-year terms?
US Presidents are elected to a four year term, and can serve another. The US Constitution does not allow any more than two full terms. Then , why did President Dwight D Eisenhower serve for 12 (twelve) years ? Eisenhower served two full terms, a total of eight years. The only U.S. President to serve 12 years was Franklin Roosevelt, and the Constitutional amendment limiting how often a President may run for reelection was a direct result.
If a president is elected for two terms how many years in office will the president serve?
if a US President is elected for 2 terms he will serve 8 years unless he resigns, dies, or becomes unable to perform his duties. A vice-president (or other official) who succeeds an elected president may serve for up to 2 years without forfeiting eligibility to two elected terms. So a President can serve a maximum of 10 years under the law set forth in the 22nd Amendment.
