Best Answer

If a vice president takes office after his president has served no more than half his term, then the vice president can finish the president's term, anywhere under two years. Then this president can serve the two term limit on his own, or a possible total of ten years.

However, this has never occurred.

The President of the United States can serve more than two terms if he was the vice president when he became president and he served less than 2 years as president. Thus, it is possible for a person to serve 9 years, 11 months, and 29 days as president.

It was possible for President Franklin D. Roosevelt to serve longer because the Constitution allowed it at the time. His 4 terms led directly to the 22nd Amendment (passed 1947, ratified 1951) limiting a President to two elected terms, and less than 10 years in any case.

If the vice-president replaces the elected president with no more than two years remaining in the term, then he can still be elected to two more terms. Thus it is theoretically possible, but not likely, that a person could serve for 10 years.

No. Once a U.S. president has served two terms of four years per term, he cannot run for president again.
