What president was nominated to run for a third term in office in 1940?
Because the US was at war and changing Presidents during this time may have upset the trust of the American public.
Why did President Roosevelt serve more than two terms?
Because he was elected. At the time, there was no law against it. The provisions in the original Constitution did not set a limit to the number of terms a person could serve as president. It was in part his long run that prompted congress to limit the number of terms to two. Theoretically, it is possible under the current law for a person to serve as president for 6 years, because when a president must step down after completing anything over half of the term, the vice president assuming office can run for two terms of his/her own after finishing the previous president's term. If the president stepping down has served anything less than half of the term, the vice president assuming office can run for only one term of his/her own after finishing the previous president's term.
If the president is at the end of their last term and congress declares war can that president serve an extra term?
No. The President's term ends at the date and time it is supposed to and a declaration of war prior to that does not permit the president to serve longer.
