Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR) - elected to four terms. After FDR, the 22nd Amendment ratified in 1951, limited the presidential office to two terms. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.
Amendment 22 - Presidential Term Limits. Ratified 2/27/1951.1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.
The first sentence of the twenty-second Amendment to the United States constitution states:No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.Congress passed the amendment on March 21, 1947, and it was ratified on February 27, 1951.
No person who is not elligible to be President can become Vice-President. No person may be elected more than twice to the office of President. There is disagreement as to whether this prevents a former President from serving as a Vice-President, since he would not have been elected to the office of President should he succeed to that office due to the death or disability of the President. But he clearly would be prevented from running for election after filling out the remainder of the term of a President who died in office.
George Washington was the first president to be elected twice. In fact, Washington had to decline to serve a third term and thereby established the precedent against remaining in office for more than two terms.
